Why Chain Length of Hyaluronan in Eye Drops Matters

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2020
The chain length of hyaluronan (HA) determines its physical as well as its physiological properties. Results of clinical research on HA eye drops are not comparable without this parameter.

LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT HEPARINS [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Journal Armed Forces India, 1998
Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWH) are a new group of parenteral anticoagulants. They represent a major clinical advance in anticoagulation since the identification of unfractionated heparin (UFH) in 1922 and the introduction of the synthetic coumarin derivative, warfarin, in 1948.
