This chemical is primarily used as a crosslinking agent in the modification of proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules. It facilitates the formation of stable amide bonds, making it valuable in bioconjugation processes for creating antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and other therapeutic constructs. Additionally, it is employed in the development of hydrogels and polymeric materials for biomedical applications, such as drug delivery systems and tissue engineering scaffolds. Its reactivity with amino groups enables efficient conjugation, enhancing the functionality and targeting capabilities of biomaterials.
