N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine CAS:7512-17-6 Introduction:
N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine is a hyaluronic acid monomer which is the basic composition unit of important organism polysaccharides. It extensively exists in the exoskeletons of shellfish and has become a new type of biochemical drugs, drug intermediates, high-end cosmetics and food additives for the important functions, such as immunity enhancement, antioxidant, keeping moisture, anti-free radicals, etc.
N-acetyl-D-glucosamine is a monosaccharide and a derivative of glucose. It is an amide between glucosamine and acetic acid. It has a molecular formula of C8H15NO6, a molar mass of 221.21 g/mol, and it is significant in several biological systems.
It is part of a biopolymer in the bacterial cell wall, which is built from alternating units of GlcNAc and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine cross-linked with oligopeptides at the lactic acid residue of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. This layered structure is called peptidoglycan (formerly called murein).
N-acetyl-D-glucosamine is the monomeric unit of the polymer chitin, which forms the outer coverings of insects and crustaceans. It is the main component of the radulas of mollusks, the beaks of cephalopods, and a major component of the cell walls of most fungi.
How does N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine CAS:7512-17-6 work?
H&Z® N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine the body is used to make a "cushion" that surrounds the joints. In osteoarthritis, this cushion becomes thinner and stiff. Taking N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine as a supplement might help to supply the materials needed to rebuild the cushion.
Used in liver and kidney detoxification, give play to the role of anti-inflammatory protect liver, stimulate disambiguation in the infant gut bacteria growth, to treat rheumatoid joint inflammation and ulcers have good curative effect, can restrain the growth of the cells, is the main raw material for the synthesis of antibiotics and anticancer drugs。
N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine CAS:7512-17-6 Functions
1.N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine has the function of treating rheumatic and rheumatoid arthritis
2.N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine can work as a food antioxidant and infant food additives
3.N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine can strengthen the function of the body's immune system, inhibit the excessive growth of cancer cells or fiber cells.
N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine CAS:7512-17-6 Applications
N-acetyl-D-glucosamine is a nutritional supplement derived from glucose; it is classified as a monosaccharide, a part of the carbohydrate family. It is sometimes used to help reduce the symptoms of osteoarthritis and Crohn's disease. In addition to taking it as a supplement, it also can be consumed as part of a balanced diet that includes shellfish. N-acetyl-D-glucosamine may also be found in various commercial products such as night creams, lotions, and anti-wrinkle cream
