DSPE-NHS is a bioconjugation phospholipid molecule with two hydrophobic lipid tails. The NHS-ester is reactive with N-terminal of protein/peptide or other amine molecule to form a stable amide linkage. DSPE-NHS is a self-assembling reagent which forms lipid bilayer in aqueous solution. DSPE-NHS can be used to prepare liposomes as agent nanocarrier.
