Applications of Y-Shape Peg Derivatives for Drug Delivery

The immune system protects the body from disease by resisting the invasion of foreign molecules into its cells, for example peptides and proteins are hydrolyzed by proteolytic enzymes; nucleic acids are hydrolyzed by nucleases; and most small molecules are eliminated in the liver and kidneys.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
