Abstract:
We studied the dependence of in vitro dextran biocompatibility on the method of oxidation of 35-kDa dextran. The biocompatibility of dextran oxidized with potassium permanganate was higher compared to that obtained by radiochemical oxidation. It was related to the formation of peroxide compounds during radiochemical oxidation. Translated from Byulleten’ Eksperimental’noi Biologii i Meditsiny, Suppl. 1, pp. 120–122, 2008
