TDB–High sulfate dextran

CAS number: 9011-18-1

Dextran sulfate is supplied as a white powder which dissolves freely in water or

salt solutions giving a clear solution.

Dextran sulfates may be produced with a wide range of molecular weights and

degrees of sulfation. Each of the products within this range is supplied with

sulphur contents of 16-20%. Dextran sulfates act as potent polyanions and offer

many interesting pharmacological and biophysical properties. Some examples of

the areas of application are given below

  • Cosmetics formulations
  • Stabilisation of sensitive biopolymers during processing or formulation
  • Enzyme activation or inhibition
  • Anti-viral preparations
  • Acceleration of hybridisation

High sulfate dextran

CAS Number: 9011-18-1

Dextran sulfates are produced by sulfating selected dextran fractions. TdB Labs produce high sulfated dextran sulfates from 5 kDa to 2000 kDa.
The dextran sulfate is supplied as the sodium salt and is stabilised by a small addition of phosphate salts. A certificate of analysis is supplied with each batch. The molecular weight range, sulfur content, moisture etc. are carefully controlled.

Structure
Dextran is a polysaccharide derived from the bacterium Leuconostoc mesenteroides B512F and consists of an α-D-(1 – 6) linear glucan with a low content (ca. 5%) of sidechains linked to the 3-carbon of glucose. Dextran sulfate is a sulfated derivative of selected dextran fraction. The degree of sulfatation of our high sulfated dextran sulfates lies between 16 to 20 %.

Storage and Storage and stability
Dextran sulfate is stable for more than 6 years when stored dry in well-sealed containers at ambient temperature

Solubility
Dextran sulfate is readily soluble in water.
