Biological Activity
Polyoxyethylene(20) oleyl ether can be used to construct three self-emulsifying drug delivery systems, protecting the model peptide (Tuftsin) from degradation by intestinal enzymes and promoting its absorption[1].
Polyoxyethylene(20) oleyl ether can effectively penetrate lipid membranes, but its solubility is limited. Especially, it has poor solubility in biomimetic membranes rich in cholesterol, and the dissolution process is slow and incomplete[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
