About this document

Clinical Dextran Production Process by Neisa Khunja is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document describes the process for producing clinical dextran using enzymes from Leuconostoc mesenteroides. Sucrose and water are mixed with the enzymes in a fermentor to produce native dextran and impurities, which are then precipitated out of solution with methanol and water in a precipitation tank. The dextran is further purified through hydrolysis, fractionation, ion exchange, concentration, and drying steps to produce the final purified dextran solution.
