Properties
Description
Chitosan-PEG-diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid (20 kDa), termed diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid-PEG-chitosan, is an experimental derivative featuring a 20 kDa PEG chain linking chitosan—a chitin-derived polymer—to DTPA. This product combines chitosan's biodegradability with PEG's molecular weight advantages and DTPA's contrast agent functionality.
