Influence of dextrans on cardiac preservation in an extracorporeal rat heart model [PDF]
Despite advances in preservation techniques for thoracic organs, the ischemic tolerance of the donor heart is still limited. Recently, a beneficial effect of oncotic substances such as dextran was shown in lung transplantation.

Bio‐Macromolecular Surface Coatings for Autohesive, Transparent, Elastomeric Foils
Thin materials made from elastomeric polymers such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polyurethane (PU) can be both, compliant and resilient. Their mechanical robustness and flexibility will make them great candidates for applications in the human body ...

Dextran fouling of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranesâCauses, extent and consequences [PDF]
In a recent paper [Susanto, Ulbricht, J. Membr. Sci. 266 (2005) 132], we showed that dextran does foul polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration (UF) membranes by contact of the solution with the membrane surface without flux through the membrane.

A2A Adenosine Receptor Antagonism Reverts the Blood-Brain Barrier Dysfunction Induced by Sleep Restriction. [PDF]
Chronic sleep restriction induces blood-brain barrier disruption and increases pro-inflammatory mediators in rodents. Those inflammatory mediators may modulate the blood-brain barrier and constitute a link between sleep loss and blood-brain barrier ...

Dextran dextrinase and dextran of Gluconobacter oxydans
Certain strains of Gluconobacter oxydans have been known since the 1940s to produce the enzyme dextran dextrinase (DDase; EC2.4.1.2)-a transglucosidase converting maltodextrins into (oligo)dextran. The enzyme catalyses the transfer of an alpha1,4 linked glucosyl unit from a donor to an acceptor molecule, forming an alpha1,6 linkage: consecutive ...

Fabrication of hydroxyapatite sponges by dextran sulphate/amino acid templating [PDF]
We report a new template-directed method for the fabrication of hydroxyapatite (HAp) sponges by using amino-acid-coated HAp nanoparticles dispersed within a viscous polysaccharide (dextran sulfate) matrix, and describe the use of these materials for the ...
