Properties
Description
DEAE-dextran, a white powder readily soluble in water, is produced as the sodium salt variant through a precise process involving the reaction of controlled dextran fractions with DEAE-chloride. This process results in a substance that possesses the desired properties of both its constituents, combining the versatility of dextran with the reactivity of DEAE-chloride. DEAE-dextran is a high-quality product with a molecular weight of 2,000,000 and nitrogen content of 2.5-4.5%.
Solubility
DEAE-dextran dissolves readily in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR/HPLC/MS.
Applications
DEAE-dextran with a molecular weight of 2000,000 and nitrogen content of 2.5-4.5% can be used for the study of vaccine enhancement, transfection methodologies, viral infectious activity, and enzymatic protein stabilization.
