Description

D-Glucuronic Acid Sodium Salt Monohydrate is a vital biochemical reagent and pharmaceutical intermediate, serving as the sodium salt of the oxidized form of glucose. This compound is essential for its role in detoxification pathways and as a key building block for synthesizing glycosaminoglycans and other complex carbohydrates. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and research sectors for applications ranging from drug conjugation to the production of bio-active materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Critical for the synthesis of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those involving glucuronidation for detoxification or targeted delivery.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a substrate or standard in enzymatic studies, metabolic pathway analysis, and glycobiology research.
• Nutraceutical & Cosmetic Ingredient: Incorporated into formulations for its purported detoxifying and skin-conditioning properties.
• Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) Synthesis: Serves as a fundamental precursor in the production of heparin, hyaluronic acid, and chondroitin sulfate.
• Cell Culture & Microbiology: Employed in specialized media formulations for culturing certain microorganisms and cell lines.
• Analytical Standard: Used as a high-purity reference standard in HPLC, LC-MS, and other analytical methods for quality control and quantification.

Quality Control

Our D-Glucuronic Acid Sodium Salt Monohydrate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, to ensure it meets stringent specifications suitable for pharmaceutical and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and handling properties.
