Properties
Description
Insulin-chondroitin sulfate bioconjugate preserves the hormone's receptor-binding conformation through oriented conjugation techniques while leveraging chondroitin's transdermal delivery enhancement.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→26 linked)
Source
Chemical synthesis
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Chondroitin sulfate-insulin can be used for its potential to study insulin-loaded complexes for transdermal delivery systems.
