PAMAM dendrimer belongs to the family of dendrimers, which can be used in biomedical and drug delivery applications.

PAMAM dendrimer is a poly(amidoamine) that is categorized under the class of dendritic polymers, which can be prepared by a two-step reaction that forms generations around the central ethylenediamine core. It consists of nitrogen and amide as functional groups that are structured in regular branched upon branched pattern. PAMAM is majorly used as a high capacity chelating agent.
