8-Arm-PEG-FA (MW 3400)

8-Arm-PEG-FA (MW 3400) (8-Arm-PEG-folate (MW 3400) ) is a PEG derivative with one Folic acid (HY-16637) molecule attached to each end of the PEG chain. Folic acid has a high affinity for folate receptors and can be used for targeted drug delivery to cell membrane receptors[1].
