General description

Blue dextran is a derivative of dextran and a high molecular weight glucose polymer.

Application

Blue Dextran has been used as a single-phase fluid dye in the mass flow capability of hollow microneedle (HMN). It has also been used as a standard in gel filtration chromatography.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Blue dextran is used in affinity chromatography, gel filtration chromatography, protein chromatography and molecular weight markers. Blue dextran has been used to study Alzheimer′s disease.
