Media viscosity was doubled by the addition of 1.5% wt/vol dextran, and the effect of increasing media viscosity on isolated platelets at 10 10 6 cells/mL was examined at 9600/s after 30 seconds of shear. While the diffusivity of FITC-dextrans in hydrogels decreased with increasing solute size, the diffusivity of FITC-PEGs increased with increasing solute size, suggesting that a generalized hydrodynamic radius-based model is not universally applicable for solute diffusion in hydrogels. For example, small changes in the length of a rod-shaped particle 25 . The hydrodynamic radius of the dextran carriers was investigated by dynamic light scattering (DLS), and the result is shown in Figure 1 A. Utilizing vesicles containing fluorescently labeled dextran with a vesicle-to-suspended bilayer fusion assay, we can observe the release the release of the dextran through the bilayer as the pore opens and expands beyond the hydrodynamic radius of the dextran.

Boston, MA 02115. Business: (617) 432 - 2000. Hydrodynamic properties of a series of ionic polysaccharides with different charge density but the same molecular weight have been evaluated in salt-free aqueous solution and aqueous/organic solvent mixtures by means of capillary viscometry. S1B) and speed of diffusion in the TATS is reduced. As synovial permeability is dependent on the size of the molecule , , ADA permeates slightly faster across the ex-vivo membrane than the 150 kDa dextran since, despite a comparable MW, it has a reported smaller hydrodynamic radius than the polysaccharide due to its secondary folding . Low molecular weight dextran diffuses relatively fast compared to the higher molecular weight as seen by the higher diffusion coefficients in Table 1. In dilute solution the behavior of DEAEdextran was compared with that of unsubstituted dextran and the molecular weight M dependences of the radius of gyration Rg, hydrodynamic radius Rh, intrinsic viscosity [], second virial coefficient A2 and zaverage diffusion coefficient Dz were determined. In other words, dextran molecules were able to pass through membrane pores with a smaller diameter than the molecule itself.

The percentage of F-dextran passed through CM, CM-np25, CM-np200, , and as controls; More pronounced effects of ECM digestions were found deeper in tumor tissue. If the shape of a particle changes in a way that affects the diffusion speed, then the hydrodynamic size will change. 3. In experimental systems with such porous membranes, the agreement between data and theory was poor for dextran, whereas it was much better for Ficoll. 1991), Dextran-40 and Dextran-70 with hydrodynamic radius of 44.5 50 and 58 64 , respectively (Granath, 1958; Venturoli & Rippe, 2005).

The data are plotted as a function of the inverse of the Stokes (hydrodynamic) radius R H of the dextrans considered rather than their molecular weight. Ficoll and dextran molecules have different molecular shapes in solution, so that the hydrodynamic radius of the molecules are different at similar molecular weight. The solutions were assumed to be dilute enough to ensure . At room temperature, MION exhibit superparamagnetic behavior with an . (Fig. 41 Although FITC-dextran 150 kDa has the same MW, it has a radius of 85 due to its linear structure.

Fig. CROUGHAN, SAYRE, AND WANG: VISCOUS REDUCTION OF TURBULENT DAMAGE IN ANIMAL CELL CULTURE 865 f zyx Because there was no hydrodynamic damage and no mass transport limitations, the effects of dextran supple- mentation were solely chemical and not physical. 42 Comparing both compounds, the permeation of Avastin across porcine skin in vitro, was approximately two-fold greater than FITC-dextran 150 kDa. The hydrodynamic radius of 2-NBDG glucose was too small to measure.

This is much smaller than the hydrodynamic radius of either dextran coil (r s = 14 or 27 nm) and does not greatly exceed the persistence lengths (l p = 1.8 or 1.5 nm). Chemical analysis showed that each core has 25 +/- 6 dextran molecules (10 kD) attached, resulting in a unimodal hydrodynamic radius of 20 nm by laser light scattering. . This diffusivity was then converted to estimate the hydrodynamic radius (R h). Dextran is a branched polysaccharide, composed of -D-glucopyranosyl residues. All samples were prepared in calcium and magnesium free phosphate buffered saline (PBS). dextran reduced RBC aggregation and low-shear viscosity after infusion into experimental animals or hospitalized patients (Thorsen and Hint, 1950; Bergan et al., 1965; Hint, 1969). 56 The linkage that the enzyme dextranase breaks down is indicated by the black arrow.
