Properties
Description
Chitosan-PEG-C16 palmitic acid (10 kDa), termed C16 palmitic acid-PEG-chitosan, is a research-driven conjugate featuring a 10 kDa PEG chain linking chitosan—a chitin-sourced biopolymer—to palmitic acid. This construct merges chitosan's adhesive traits with PEG's prolonged circulation and palmitic acid's bioavailability enhancement.
