Description

Chondroitin-4-Sulfate Sodium Salt

Chondroitin-4-Sulfate Sodium salt is a high-purity sulfated glycosaminoglycan composed of repeating disaccharide units of N-Acetylgalactosamine and Gluronic Acid sulfated at the 4-position. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and biomedical applications for joint health support, cartilage research, and advanced biomaterial development.
Chondroitin-4-Sulfate Sodium salt appears as a white to off-white hygroscopic powder that is freely soluble in water, forming clear to slightly opalescent solutions. Its high sulfate content provides strong anionic charge density, enabling significant hydration capacity and interaction with extracellular matrix components and proteins.
In pharmaceutical and research applications, Chondroitin-4-Sulfate Sodium salt is used in:
• Nutraceutical formulations supporting joint and connective tissue health
• Injectable and oral research formulations
• Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine research
• Drug delivery and hydrogel systems
• Studies involving extracellular matrix biology and inflammatory modulation
• Combination formulations with Glucosamine and related compounds
Chondroitin-4-Sulfate Sodium salt contributes to cartilage structure and mechanical resilience by supporting water retention and matrix organization. In research settings, it has been studied for its influence on inflammatory signaling pathways and connective tissue integrity.
