Properties
Description
Sodium formyl hyaluronate with a molecular weight falling within the range of 50-100 kDa, offers distinct properties and applications in biotechnology and healthcare.
Molecular Weight
50-100 kDa
Source
Sodium formyl hyaluronate is chemically modified sodium hyaluronate (SH). Modification was achieved by xidation process.
Form
White to slightly yellow powder or granules
Solubility
It is soluble in water and forms a clear solution (up to 5.0 g/100 mL water for lower molecular weight (MW) material, a lower concentration for higher MW material). Soluble in alcohol-water mixture up to a concentration of 50% (v/v). It is insoluble in aprotic solvents.
Applications
Sodium formyl hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 50-100 kDa can be used for the study of novel drug delivery systems, leveraging its exceptional biocompatibility and viscoelastic properties to develop advanced pharmaceutical formulations.
