*USAGE / SAFETY STATEMENT
For Research Use Only (RUO)
APPLICATION
• Dextran sulfate Pharma grade products are suitable for those who aim to use them as raw materials in pharmaceutical formulations, medical devices, cosmetics or related.
• Cell Culture Media Supplementation: Used in mammalian cell cultures, especially CHO, to enhance cell performance in chemically defined and serum-free media for the production of recombinant proteins and antibodies.
• Protein Stabilization: Helps prevent aggregation and degradation of therapeutic proteins and enzymes.
• Viral Clearance Studies: Strong viral binding properties makes them valuable in spike removal and clearance validation studies during biopharmaceutical production processes.
• Bioprocess and Formulation Research: Used in the development of stable, high-performance bioprocesses and formulations for preclinical and early clinical work.

KEY FEATURES
High Sulfated: Provides strong negative charge density critical for interactions with proteins, viral particles, and cellular components.
Controlled Molecular Weights: High sulfated dextran sulfates of low molecular weights (5 kDa, 8 kDa, and 10 kDa) are available in pharma grade after additional quality analyses. Low sulfated dextran sulfates i.e. DS5LS Pharma grade and DS10LS Pharma grade will be available upon request.
Pharmaceutical Grade Quality: Produced under stringent quality standards with thorough testing for microbial contamination, bacterial endotoxins, and residual solvents according to the European Pharmacopoeia.
Consistency for Process Development: Pharmaceutical-grade specifications reduce variability and risk in bioprocess optimization.
Safe for Sensitive Applications: Low bioburden and endotoxin levels allow safe use in cell-based research, assay development, and process scale-up.
High Lot-to-Lot Consistency: Manufactured with controlled degree of substitution and tight molecular weight distribution for reproducibility across experiments.
