Product Description:
Polymer Factory's bis-MPA Acetylene-OH dendrons are monodisperse, multifunctional scaffolds with 1 alkyne focal point and an exact number of hydroxyl surface groups. The acetylene focal point can be used for click chemistry conjugation such as CuAAC and thiol-yne coupling to produce highly functional materials.   Our bis-MPA polyester scaffolds are biodegrable and have low cytotoxicity, making them ideal candidates for use in biological research applications.
