Press Releases

Watertown, MA, 20 Aug, 2024 – Biopharma PEG is excited to announce its expanded range of Multi-Arm PEG products, rapidly gaining traction in the medical and biopharma fields. These innovative multi-arm PEG derivatives are highly effective cross-linkers widely studied and implemented in various medical applications, including hydrogels for regenerative medicine, controlled drug release, 3D cell culture, and wound healing.

"At Biopharma PEG, we provide high-purity multi-arm PEG linkers with a variety of functional groups, ranging from 1k to 40k molecular weights," said Sonia Lee, Business Development of Biopharma PEG. "These PEG derivatives can be cross-linked into hydrogels, which have versatile applications in medical devices and regenerative medicine, particularly for controlled drug release, wound healing, and 3D cell cultures."

Wide Product Range: Biopharma PEG offers multi-arm PEG linkers with different branching and functional group options to suit diverse needs in medical applications. Available products include:

• 2-Arm PEG (Y-shape PEG, branched PEG): Examples include Y-shape-PEG-NHS, etc.
• 4-Arm PEG: Examples include 4-ArmPEG-SG, 4-ArmPEG-SS, 4-ArmPEG-NH2, etc.
• 8-Arm PEG: Examples include 8-ArmPEG-SG, 8-ArmPEG-SS, 8-ArmPEG-Mal, etc.

These products are supplied in molecular weights from 1K to 40k, providing versatility for various research and development needs. The total molecular weight of each multi-arm PEG product is calculated by summing the molecular weights of the PEG chains on each arm.

Key Applications: Multi-arm PEG products play a crucial role in forming hydrogels that have numerous applications, including:

• Controlled Drug Release: PEG hydrogels allow for sustained and targeted delivery of therapeutics.
• 3D Cell Culture: PEG hydrogels provide a supportive environment for cell growth and tissue engineering.
• Wound Sealing and Healing: PEG hydrogels are being developed for advanced wound care applications, promoting healing and tissue regeneration.

Custom Solutions Available: Biopharma PEG also offers custom synthesis options for multi-arm PEG products with specific molecular weights and functional groups that are not listed in the online catalog.
