One of Polydex's leading products, iron dextran, is used to treat anemia in piglets. Polydex sells dextran and derivatives worldwide through subsidiaries Dextran Products and Chemdex. Taking a shot at human pharmaceuticals, the company developed a microbicidal gel for potential use as a contraceptive and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. However, development of the product was suspended pending further investigation. Chairman, president, and CEO George Usher and his family control 47% of the voting stock of the company.
