Properties
Description
Chitosan-PEG-NGR peptide (20 kDa), termed NGR-PEG-chitosan, is an experimental material where a 20 kDa polyethylene glycol tether attaches NGR peptide to chitosan—a polysaccharide from chitin. The hybrid merges chitosan's biodegradability with PEG's pharmacokinetic benefits and NGR's theranostic vector functionality.
