Biological Activity
Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment.
Dextran can be used in animal modeling to create paw edema models. Injection of dextran at doses of either 7.9 mg/kg or 300 mg/kg results in edema of equal intensity in the limbs[1][2].
Administration: 1% dextran (20 μL/paw)• intraplantar injection in the right hind paw• a single dose for 1, 2, 3 and 4 h[1].
Rat: Albino of of the Sprague Dawleq strain• weighing 110-130 g• seven-week-old[2].
Administration: 0.5 mL/100 g • tail vein injection• a single dose[2].
Histological analysis: Mast-cell disruption (histamine and serotonili release), vasodilatation, hypothermia, hypotension, helnoconcentration and edema occurred with the high doses of Dextran. Since minute doses of dextran induced only vasodilatation and edema formation[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
