CAS 9007-28-7: Chondroitin sulfate
Description:Chondroitin sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan, a type of complex carbohydrate that is a key component of cartilage and connective tissues in the body. It is composed of repeating disaccharide units, typically consisting of N-acetylgalactosamine and glucuronic acid. This substance is known for its ability to retain water and provide structural support, contributing to the elasticity and resilience of cartilage. Chondroitin sulfate is often used as a dietary supplement to support joint health and alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis, although its efficacy can vary among individuals. It is generally considered safe for most people, with few reported side effects, though it may interact with certain medications, such as anticoagulants. In addition to its biological roles, chondroitin sulfate is also studied for its potential therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Its CAS number, 9007-28-7, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
