Sodium Hyaluronate
|
It was first isolated in 1934 by Karl Meyer from vitreous humour eye. It is a linear polysaccharide formed by
repeating units of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and D-glucuronic acid.
It has a wide range of molecular weights and it's distinguished from the other glycosaminoglycans as it is free from covalent links to protein and sulphuric groups.
A significant property of hyaluronate is its capacity to bind huge amounts of water, 1000-fold of its own weight.
