Properties
Description
IR825-PEG-chitosan (350 Da), or chitosan-PEG-IR825 dye, is a scientific conjugate formed by attaching a 350 Da PEG linker and IR825 dye to chitosan—a natural polymer from chitin. This construct combines chitosan's mucoadhesion with PEG's solubility and IR825's near-infrared imaging properties.
