Description

Heparin Ammonium Salt is a purified, sulfated glycosaminoglycan anticoagulant derived from porcine intestinal mucosa. This high-purity intermediate is critical for ensuring the safety and efficacy of final pharmaceutical heparin products. It is primarily used by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries for the production of low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs), heparin-based APIs, and in various research applications.

Application

• Primary raw material for the manufacture of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) APIs such as enoxaparin, dalteparin, and tinzaparin.
• Key starting material in the synthesis of ultra-low molecular weight heparin derivatives and novel heparin-based therapeutics.
• Used in the preparation of heparin-coated medical devices and surfaces to impart antithrombogenic properties.
• Essential reagent in biochemical and pharmacological research for studying coagulation cascades, cell growth factors, and inflammation.
• Employed in cell culture media as a stabilizer for various growth factors.
• Intermediate in the production of heparin sodium and other heparin salts for final pharmaceutical formulation.
