Anticoagulant activity of dextran derivatives. Part I: Synthesis and characterization. 1984

M Mauzac, and J Jozefonvicz

Substituted dextrans bearing carboxymethyl and benzylsulphonate groups have been prepared. These materials exhibit an antithrombic activity correlated with the ratio of each substituent. The highest activity is obtained when the dextran derivative contains more than 50% of carboxylic acid groups and simultaneously about 15% of benzylsulphonate functions.

D003911	Dextrans	A group of glucose polymers made by certain bacteria. Dextrans are used therapeutically as plasma volume expanders and anticoagulants. They are also commonly used in biological experimentation and in industry for a wide variety of purposes.

D013329	Structure-Activity Relationship	The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.

D013918	Thrombin Time	Clotting time of PLASMA mixed with a THROMBIN solution. It is a measure of the conversion of FIBRINOGEN to FIBRIN, which is prolonged by AFIBRINOGENEMIA, abnormal fibrinogen, or the presence of inhibitory substances, e.g., fibrin-fibrinogen degradation products, or HEPARIN. BATROXOBIN, a thrombin-like enzyme unaffected by the presence of heparin, may be used in place of thrombin.
