Modified phospholipid products: it is to modify the amino group (primary amino group) -NH3 at the end of DSPE into NHS, COOH, N3, MAL, Thiol (SH), OPSS, FITC, FA, Biotin and other different active groups.
Phospholipids DSPE belong to the lipid family of biopolymers. Phospholipids consist of two fatty acids, a glycerol unit, a phosphate group, and a polar molecule.
The phosphate groups and polar head regions of the molecule are hydrophilic (attracted to water), while the fatty acid tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).
When placed in water, the phospholipids Orient themselves into a double layer, where the non-polar tail region faces the inner region of the double layer. The polar head region faces outward and interacts with the water.
