Description:

Vitamin E, also called tocopherols, are a series of chiral organic molecules that vary in their degree of methylation of the phenol moiety of the chromanol ring. Tocopherols are lipid soluble anti-oxidants that protect cell membrane from xoidative damage. Vitamin E PEG Maleimide (TPGS PEG Maleimide)  offered by Nanocs is a class of bioactive PEGs made from the PEG conjugation to α-tocopherol that can be used to for drug delivery or bioassay development. This product is thiol reactive and has good solubility both in aqueous solution and lipid.
