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