Safety score · 0–100
Moderate
Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A sister molecule to PNA-21 carboxyethyl fluorene — same fluorene-PNA chemistry. Same caveats: trace levels, but limited safety record for the fluorene part — default down.

- Designer peptide-nucleic-acid conjugate marketed for signaling effects
