hondroitin Sulfate is a kind of acid mucopolysaccharide extracted
from healthy, edible and homebred animal cartilage or shark
cartilage. It’s composed of Chondroitin Sulfate A, C and other
various Chondroitin Sulfate. It is widely presented in
fish,mammalian and bird cartilage.Chondroitin Sulfate Sodium is the
sodium salt of the sulfated linear glycosaminoglycan. Chondroitin
Sulfate consists mostly of the sodium salt of the sulfate ester of
N-acetylchondrosamine (*-acetamido**-deoxy-β-D-galactopyranose) and
D-glucuronic acid copolymer. These hexoses are alternately linked
β*1,4 and β*1,3 in the polymer. Chondrosamine moieties in the
prevalent glycosaminoglycan are monosulfated primarily on position
4 and less so on position 6. Chondroitin Sulfate can be used for
the auxiliary treatment of coronary heart disease, angina,
myocardial infarction, coronary atherosclerosis, myocardial
ischemia, prevention of the formation of atherosclerosis, and the
treatment of neuralgia, arthralgia, and arthritis.
