Compound Overview
DSPE-Thiol is a modified phospholipid bearing a reactive thiol (-SH) group and two saturated stearoyl chains, used mainly for liposome and nanoparticle bioconjugation. It facilitates attachment of targeting ligands, membrane stabilization, and formation of covalent bonds[1]. It is supplied as a white to off-white solid (C44H86NO9PS, MW 836.19) at 80.0% purity.
