Description

Application

• Dextran in drug delivery: Research highlights the utilization of dextran in formulating hydrogels for enhanced wound healing, where collagen-polyurethane-dextran hydrogels demonstrate significant anti-inflammatory effects and promote collagen synthesis, thus supporting tissue regeneration processes (Aguayo-Morales et al., 2024).


• Dextran as a tool in bioconjugation: A study investigated the role of dextran in bioconjugation to improve the cellular uptake of antisense oligonucleotides. This application of dextran enhances the delivery mechanisms of nucleic acid therapies, showing promise for genetic disorders and therapeutic interventions (Kohashi et al., 2024).
