Chondroitin Sulphate A (Parent Material) - 2mg

The two CS-E products have differing degrees of additional 6-O-sulphation to 4-O-sulphated GalNAc residues. The CS-E polymers are derived from bovine tracheal chondroitin sulphate A (CS-A01) and are chemically treated to form chondroitin sulphate E  (CS-E) which is widely involved in mammalian cell growth and differentiation. The additional 6-O-sulphate groups are introduced specifically by chemical means (to form 4,6-di-O-sulphated GalNAc substituted residues) and the products analysed by 1H NMR spectroscopy and by disaccharide analysis following depolymerisation with chondroitinase ABC.
