General description
Dextran is a D-glucosyl homopolysaccharide which has a-1,6 glucosidic linkages with different branches through α-1,2, α-1,3, and α-1,4 linkages correspondingly classified as group A, B and C. It can be synthesized from sucrose by cell-free filtrate.
Dextrans are polysaccharides with molecular weights ≥1,000 Dalton, with a linear backbone of α-linked D-glucopyranosyl repeating units. Dextrans are found as bacterial extracellular polysaccharides. They are synthesized from sucrose by Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Lactobacillus brevis. Bacteria employ dextran in biofilm formation or as a protective coating to evade host phagocytes in the case of pathogenic bacteria.
Dextran from Leuconostoc mesenteroides (Mw: 25,000) may be used as an analytical standard to calibrate the column for gel permeation chromatography (GPC).
Dextran from Leuconostoc mesenteroides (Mw: 25,000) may be used as an analytical standard to calibrate the column for gel permeation chromatography (GPC).
Application
Markers-dextran with 25000 Da has been used as standard in gel chromatography analysis to determine fractional composition of protein, carbohydrate, phenolic surface active substances in base wine.
Use of dextrans as long and hydrophilic spacer arms improves the performance of immobilized proteins acting on macromolecules.

In our functional dissection of the CD33 Alzheimer's disease susceptibility locus, we found that the rs3865444(C) risk allele was associated with greater cell surface expression of CD33 in the monocytes (t50 = 10.06, P(joint) = 1.3 × 10(-13)) of young

It is widely accepted that dorsal striatum neurons participate in either the direct pathway (expressing dopamine D1 receptors) or the indirect pathway (expressing D2 receptors), controlling voluntary movements in an antagonistically balancing manner. The D1- and D2-expressing neurons are activated

The overall goal of this paper was to enhance the bioavailability of orally delivered insulin. A mucoadhesive amphiphilic chitosan derivative, lauroyl sulphated chitosan (LSCS) was used as the oral carrier for insulin. Trans epithelial electrical resistance experiment was performed on
