Description

Glucosamine Sulfate Sodium Chloride is a high-purity, pharmaceutically relevant salt form of glucosamine, a fundamental building block for glycosaminoglycans. This compound is valued for its enhanced stability and bioavailability compared to other glucosamine salts, making it a critical raw material for high-quality nutraceutical and pharmaceutical formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the dietary supplement, veterinary health, and functional food industries for producing joint health products.

Application

• Primary active ingredient in high-grade dietary supplements and nutraceuticals for joint and cartilage support.
• Key raw material for pharmaceutical intermediates used in osteoarthritis management formulations.
• Essential component in veterinary health products for companion and livestock animal joint care.
• Used in the development of functional foods and beverages fortified for musculoskeletal health.
• Reference standard in analytical and quality control laboratories for method development and validation.
• Starting material for cosmeceutical applications targeting skin hydration and repair.

Quality Control

Our Glucosamine Sulfate Sodium Chloride is manufactured under strict quality systems. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and potency, aligning with pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industry standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting results for assay, impurities, residual solvents, and microbiological parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the product must be stored in a cool, dry place with controlled humidity. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C. Once opened, the container should be resealed immediately under a dry atmosphere to prevent moisture uptake and caking.
