Abstract
Polyglucose is a water-soluble polymer of glucose prepared by chemical polymerization and of possible utility, like dextran, as a plasma extender. With anthrone it gives the same amt. of color, permg. of C, as glucose. Methods are described for determing the polyglucose content of blood and urine with anthrone colorimetrically, and of determining polyglucose in blood by measuring the increase in reducing sugar formed by acid hydrolysis.Keywords
