Please note: We’re closed 19–20 June for our 60th anniversary celebration. We’ll get back to you after the weekend.

When dextran is used in a pharmaceutical product or medical device, it should always be of pharmaceutical quality.

Technical Quality Dextran is a high purity dextran fraction with selected average molecular weights and molecular weight distributions used as starting or intermediate reagents.

Ultra Narrow

Dextran Ultra is a range of very narrow, dispersed Dextran fractions with polydispersity Mw/Mn below 1.5. This makes our Dextran Ultra highly suitable for characterization, complexing and other pharmaceutical/technical uses where added/increased/additional requirements with regard to narrow distributions and quality are required.

Applications

As a nontoxic and biocompatible polysaccharide, dextran is used widely in research and production in the pharmaceutical, biomedical, and life science industries.

Dextran Ultra Narrow

Dextran Ultra Narrow consists of very narrowly dispersed dextran fractions with a polydispersity (Mw/Mn) below 1.5. All Dextran Ultra fractions are very well characterised. This makes Dextran Ultra Narrow highly suitable for characterisation, complexing and other uses where there are additional requirements for a narrow distribution.
