Dextran Sulfate Sodium Salt
1. Basic Information
Name: Dextran Sulfate Sodium Salt
Alias: Sodium dextran sulfate
CAS No.: 9011-18-1
Molecular Formula: Variable polymer (general repeat unit formula: C6H7Na3O14S3)
Molecular Weight: Multiple specifications (5k, 10k, 50k, 500k, 1000k Da)
Category: Biochemical research reagent, anticoagulant raw material, cell culture additive, viral inhibitor, blood separation auxiliary
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: White to off-white hygroscopic powder
- Odor: Odorless
- Solubility: Freely soluble in water; insoluble in ethanol, acetone, ether and other organic solvents
- Predicted Density: 1.6–1.8 g/cm3
- Hygroscopy: Strongly hygroscopic, readily absorbs moisture and agglomerates under high humidity
- Aqueous property: Aqueous solution shows weak acidity; stable in neutral aqueous environment; desulfation occurs under strong acid heating conditions
Chemical Properties
- Molecular structure: Linear dextran polysaccharide backbone modified with covalently bonded sulfate groups, sodium ions as counterions; anionic polyelectrolyte
- Biological activity: Inhibits viral adhesion to cell membranes; anticoagulant activity via interfering with blood coagulation factors; precipitates lipoproteins in serum
- Thermal stability: Stable below 80 °C; long-time boiling under acidic conditions leads to polysaccharide chain degradation and sulfate group loss
- Photostability: Moderately light-resistant; long-term intense UV exposure slightly reduces biological activity
- Compatibility: Compatible with neutral buffer salts and cell culture media; incompatible with strong acid, strong oxidants and cationic polymers
3. Main Application Fields
1. Biochemical & Cell Biology Research Reagent (Core Application)
Virus entry inhibitor for in vitro cell assays; lipoprotein precipitation reagent; additive to improve cell transfection efficiency
2. Pharmaceutical Raw Material
Low-molecular-weight grade for anticoagulant, anti-lipidemic pharmaceutical formulations
3. Biomedical Separation Auxiliary
Component for density gradient separation medium of blood cells and immune cells
4. Food & Cosmetic Stabilizer
Anionic thickening stabilizer for cosmetic serum and functional food emulsions
