It is used to prepare dimeric RGD peptide-paclitaxel conjugate as model for integrin-targeted drug delivery. It is also used to synthesize DOTA-conjugated multivalent cyclic-RGD peptide dendrimers for tumor targeting and imaging use.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
