Ultrafiltration of an aqueous solution of a synthetic mixture of inulin and clinical dextran has been used to separate the two polysaccharides. A clinical dextran has also been fractionated in the same way to yield five dextran fractions having number-average molecular weights ranging from 11,000 for the lowest to 190,000 for the highest fraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
