Description
23:2 Diyne PE is a biocompatible and fluorescent molecule composed of two quinoline derivatives and used as a diagnostic tool for cancer. Hydrogen atoms on the rings of the quinoline derivatives are replaced by deuterium atoms which gives it high resistance to light exposure and particle bombardment. It is also a biomimetic molcule because it has been shown to only bind to collagen and cancer cells.
Uses
23:2 Diyne PE [DC(8,9)PE] is a phospholipase-mediated hydrolyzed phosphocoline with palmitic acid (16:0) and Pentacosa-10,12-diynoic acid for tails.
