Abstract

Ultrasound has been found to reduce the relative molar mass (R.M.M.) of native dextran. For a given irradiation time, the decrease in R.M.M. has been found to be greatest at the highest applied sonic power and the lowest reaction temperature. The heterogeneity index, Mw/Mn, approaches unity as the irradiation time is increased.
