Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 9000-20000)  (Synonyms: DSS (MW 9000-20000); DXS (MW 9000-20000))

Dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS) (MW 9000-20000) is a polymer of dehydrated glucose with a molecular weight of approximately 9000-20000. Dextran sulfate sodium salt with different molecular weights exhibits different biological activities. Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 9000-20000) is a biocompatible and biodegradable biochemical reagent and can be used for pharmaceutical and biomedical applications^[1][2].

For preparation of drug delivery system:
Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 9000-20000) can be used for preparation of Hydralazine (HY-B0464)-loaded Chitosan nanoparticle, where the sufficient negative charge densities in DSS facilitates the encapsulation of hydralazine inside chitosan nanoparticles^[1].
Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 9000-20000) can be used for biocompatible polyelectrolyte multilayers for drug delivery^[2].
