DSPE-pSar (DSPE-Polysarcosine)

Price range: $480.00 through $1,800.00

DSPE-pSar (DSPE-Polysarcosine) is an amphiphilic lipid-polypeptoid conjugate consisting of 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE) linked to polysarcosine. The polysarcosine segment provides excellent water solubility, low protein adsorption, and stealth properties, making DSPE-Polysarcosine an attractive alternative to PEGylated lipids for liposome formulation, lipid nanoparticles, drug delivery, and nanomedicine applications.

Description

General Description

DSPE-pSar (DSPE-Polysarcosine) is a lipid-polypeptoid conjugate designed for membrane anchoring and nanoparticle stabilization. The DSPE lipid anchor readily incorporates into liposomal membranes, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), micelles, and other lipid-based delivery systems, while the polysarcosine chain extends into the aqueous environment to create a hydrophilic protective layer.

Polysarcosine is a biocompatible and biodegradable polypeptoid derived from N-methylglycine that exhibits low protein adsorption, low immunogenicity, and excellent aqueous solubility. As a result, DSPE-Polysarcosine can provide stealth-like properties comparable to PEGylated lipids while offering an alternative polymer platform for advanced drug delivery systems. The material is widely used in liposome engineering, mRNA delivery, nanoparticle stabilization, and nanomedicine research.
