Properties
Description
Chitosan-PEG-diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid (2 kDa), termed diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid-PEG-chitosan, is an experimental material synthesized by attaching a 2 kDa PEG chain and DTPA to chitosan—a chitin-derived glycan. This combination merges chitosan's biocompatibility with PEG's stealth characteristics and DTPA's metal-ion affinity.
