Pentaethylene glycol (PEG) is a versatile and biocompatible synthetic molecule. As a non-toxic and water-soluble compound, it has become a ingredient in numerous biotechnological and biomedical products. In vitro studies Pentaethylene glycol has demonstrated its utility. By creating a hydrophilic shell around molecules, Pentaethylene glycol effectively shields them from interacting with other compounds. This protective barrier enhances their stability and enables them to remain in solution for extended durations.
