DC-CHOL (3β-[N-(N’,N’-dimethylaminoethane)carbamoyl]cholesterol)（Cat No.:M044530）is a synthetic cationic lipid commonly used in gene delivery and liposome-based transfection. This compound features a cholesterol backbone linked to a dimethylaminoethane group, which imparts a positive charge, facilitating the formation of stable lipoplexes with negatively charged DNA or RNA. DC-CHOL is widely used in biomedical research for developing non-viral gene delivery systems, offering a versatile and efficient method for introducing genetic material into cells. It is essential in advancing gene therapy, molecular biology, and nanomedicine research.
