Poly(styrenyl acetal trehalose)

Description

Poly styrenyl acetal trehalose pSAT is composed of trehalose side chains linked to a polystyrene backbone via acetals. Poly styrenyl acetal trehalose stabilizes a variety of proteins and enzymes against fluctuations in temperature, and does not trigger the innate immune response. Poly styrenyl acetal trehalose can be used in synthesis of protein-polymer conjugates for reduced renal clearance of the biomolecule.
