Properties
Description
Vinylsulfone-chitosan, termed chitosan-vinylsulfone, is a research-oriented hybrid where vinylsulfone groups are attached to chitosan—a glycan derived from chitin. This merges chitosan's biocompatibility with vinylsulfone's thiol-reactive behavior.
Functional Group
Vinylsulfone
Form
Solid or viscous liquid
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Stability
It is stable under its storage temperature.
Quality Level
Research level
Applications
Chitosan-vinylsulfone can be used to design thiol-selective conjugation platforms for cysteine-rich proteins.
Storage
Store at -20°C, protect from light and moisture.
