Description

Sulfatide Sodium Salt CAS NO 113255-27-9 is a high-purity, sodium salt derivative of the sulfatide class of sulfoglycosphingolipids. This compound is a critical biochemical reagent and reference standard valued for its role in studying lipid metabolism, membrane structure, and neurological function. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the life sciences, particularly those focused on neuroscience, lipidomics, and diagnostic development. Our supply ensures consistent quality and reliable availability for your most demanding applications.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a key reference standard and substrate in studies of sphingolipid metabolism, lysosomal storage disorders (e.g., metachromatic leukodystrophy), and myelin biology.
• Diagnostic Development: Serves as a critical antigen or calibrator in the development of immunoassays and enzymatic tests for detecting sulfatide antibodies or enzyme deficiencies.
• Neuroscience Studies: Employed in research on myelin formation, demyelinating diseases (like multiple sclerosis), and the role of sulfatides in neural cell signaling and adhesion.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Acts as a starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex glycosphingolipids or potential therapeutic agents targeting lipid pathways.
• Lipidomics & Analytical Standards: Provides a high-purity standard for mass spectrometry (MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis to identify and quantify sulfatides in biological samples.
• Cell Biology & Membrane Studies: Utilized to investigate lipid raft composition, membrane fluidity, and protein-lipid interactions within cellular membranes.
