Low molecular weight dextran in experimental embolectomy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The canine middle cerebral artery (MCA) was embolized with a pliable cylinder 8 mm long by 1.6 mm in diameter via the internal carotid artery. Both control and experimental embolectomies were performed 6 hours following embolization. The experimental animals were treated with low molecular weight dextran (LMD). In the control animals, the average volume of infarction in the brain was 1.45 cm.3 In the experimental animals the average volume of infarction was 0.13 cm.3

Low Molecular Weight Dextran and Cardiopulmonary Bypass in the BOS Experimental Subject
Dextran is a branched polysaccharide composed of about 200,000 glucose units. The glucose units in the main chain are bound together by 1:6 glucosidic linkages. A special strain of lactobacilli (lenconostoc Mesenteroides) converts sucrose to a highly linear dextran molecule which has a molecular weight of approximately 40 million. By means of partial acid hydrolysis and subsequent differential ...

متن کاملCharacterization of the Dextran Produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides from Date Fruit Extract
In the present study, the production of dextran from date extract and sucrose as carbon sources by the bacterium Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL B512 (f) was investigated. In comparison to blue dextran (Mw≈2000 Da), dextran molecular weight was reduced (Mw2000 KDa). Flow behavior indices of dextran solutions from date extracts were investigated and rheological parameters were evaluated at concen...
