Carboxymethyl Dextran
Carboxymethyl Dextran (CM-Dextran) is a dextran derivative and a biocompatible coating for superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. When coated on the surface of superparamagnetic nanoparticles, Carboxymethyl Dextran forms stable particles across all pH values and NaCl concentrations. Carboxymethyl Dextran can be used to prepare materials for magnetic resonance molecular imaging.

Biological Activity
Carboxymethyl Dextran-coated MNPs (reacted at 70 °C for 90 min) exhibit a spherical morphology with an average particle size of 27.5 ± 2.6 nm, and can enhance the dispersion of particles by increasing steric hindrance.[1].
Carboxymethyl Dextran-coated MNPs (reacted at 70 °C for 90 min, measured at 25 °C) remain stable over a pH range of 2 to 11 and a NaCl concentration range of 0 to 0.14 mol/L, with their hydrodynamic diameter maintained at 45 to 65 nm and no aggregation observed[1].
