Properties
Description
Chitosan-PEG-diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid (750 Da), known as diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid-PEG-chitosan, is an investigational derivative featuring a 750 Da PEG tether between chitosan—a chitin-sourced polysaccharide—and DTPA. This construct preserves chitosan's biodegradability while incorporating PEG's hydrophilicity and DTPA's coordination chemistry.
