Description

Na3 Glycan is a sodium salt derivative of glycan, a polysaccharide or oligosaccharide, identified by CAS No. 82867-73-0. This compound is valued for its enhanced solubility and stability in aqueous systems compared to its free acid form, making it a versatile intermediate and functional ingredient. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and nutraceutical industries for applications ranging from drug delivery systems to bioactive formulations.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a stabilizer, carrier, or bioavailability enhancer in solid dosage forms and injectables.
• Cosmetic Formulations: Serves as a moisturizing agent, texture modifier, or active delivery system in creams, lotions, and serums.
• Nutraceutical & Functional Foods: Incorporated into supplements and fortified foods for its potential prebiotic or bioactive properties.
• Biochemical Research: Employed as a standard or reagent in glycobiology studies, enzymatic assays, and carbohydrate chemistry.
• Drug Delivery: Explored for constructing targeted delivery platforms such as nanoparticles or conjugates due to its biocompatibility.
• Veterinary Pharmaceuticals: Used in formulations for animal health products, including vaccines and nutritional supplements.

Quality Control

Our Na3 Glycan is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We can supply material compliant with relevant standards for pharmaceutical or cosmetic use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric humidity.
