Abstract: High-molecular-weight fucan compositions comprising a therapeutically effective, medically acceptable fucan in a composition comprising wherein the fucan, for example, has a molecular weight distribution in which more than 60% w/w of the composition has a molecular weight above 100 kDa.

Abstract: Apparatus, methods, systems, etc., for the tangential flow filtration (TFF) of viscous compositions including viscous fluids, solutions, gels, pastes, creams and suspensions with viscosities greater than 10 cP, 20 cP, 50 cP or 100 cP. The methods, etc., provide enhanced mixing of the viscous compositions in their storage vessels by extracting the input composition from different depths in the storage vessels to reduce or eliminate vertical concentration gradients.

Abstract: Methods, systems etc., for predicting and/or consistently obtaining uniform biopolymer compositions by blending a plurality of input biopolymer compositions with different molecular weight distributions, the blending based on concentration data as a function of molecular weight for the plurality of input biopolymer compositions.

Abstract: Low endotoxin fucan compositions comprising a therapeutically effective, medically acceptable fucan in a composition comprising less than about 0.2, 0.18, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, or 0.0005 endotoxin units (EU) per milligram of the fucan are disclosed. Methods and systems for removing or reducing the amount of endotoxins from a starting fucan composition are also disclosed.

Abstract: Compositions, methods, systems, etc., are provided for modified and/or purified fucans and corresponding fucan-containing compositions that inhibit fibrous adhesions among other advantages. The purified/modified fucans and fucan compositions have a reduced level of non-fucan components or impurities such as those found in a starting fucan composition. Such reduced undesirable components or impurities include, for example, undesired components bound to the fucan and compounds in the composition that are not a part of or bound to the fucan.
