    Dextran-polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugates were synthesized by activating dextran hydroxy groups with carbonyldiimidazole, introducing amino groups by attaching ethylenediamine, and reacting amino groups with a succinimidyl-activated derivative of PEG. Conjugates with an average of 12 and 21 PEG (5 kDa) residues per single dextran (73 kDa) molecule were prepared. These conjugates have circulation half-lives of 5.3 h and 7.0 h, respectively, compared to 4.0 h for non-PEGylated dextran. The modification of dextran with PEG inhibits the uptake of polymer by the major organ of the reticuloendothelial system, the liver. Dextran-PEG conjugates may represent a convenient platform for long-circulating pharmaceutical preparations.
