Abstract
Several variables which could affect the polymerization and physico-chemical properties of dextran hydrogel were investigated. The dextran hydrogels were prepared at multiple level of each variable. Water uptake capacity and handling characteristics were employed to evaluate the hydrogels. The effect of each variable on the polymerization of dextran is discussed and an optimum formulation of dextran hydrogel is presented.
