Description
mPEG-Dendro Acid Â consists of a linear PEG conjugated to one perfect dendrimer terminated with carboxylic acid groups. This series of products feature a bisMPA dendrimer with a definite number of functional end groups (such as acid COOH). Â  The dendrimer option in this series of products includes Â G2, G3 and G4 generations Â having 4, 8, and 16 end functional groups, respectively.
