Description

Neocarrabiose4 1,3,5,7,9-Penta-o-Sulphate (Na+) is a highly sulfated, low molecular weight oligosaccharide derived from carrageenan, a natural polysaccharide. This compound is valued for its potent biological activity and specific ionic interactions, making it a critical research and development material. It is primarily utilized by researchers and manufacturers in the life sciences, pharmaceutical development, and advanced material sectors. Its defined structure and high degree of sulfation enable precise studies in areas such as anticoagulation, viral inhibition, and cell signaling pathways.

Application

• Biomedical Research: Used as a reference standard or active component in studies of anticoagulant mechanisms, angiogenesis, and inflammation.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Investigated as a potential lead compound or excipient for drug delivery systems targeting specific protein interactions.
• Virology Studies: Employed in research to understand and inhibit viral attachment and entry, particularly for enveloped viruses.
• Cell Culture & Biochemistry: Functions as a tool to modulate growth factor activity and study extracellular matrix interactions in vitro.
• Cosmeceutical R&D: Explored for advanced skincare formulations targeting anti-aging and skin barrier function due to its bioactive properties.
• Analytical Standard: Serves as a high-purity calibrant in chromatographic (e.g., HPLC, CE) and spectroscopic methods for quality control of carrageenan-derived products.

Quality Control

Every batch of Neocarrabiose4 1,3,5,7,9-Penta-o-Sulphate (Na+) is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality management protocols to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, detailing key parameters such as assay, sulfation degree, and impurity profile.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept in a desiccated environment to maintain stability and purity. For long-term storage, consider conditions under an inert atmosphere.
