Sodium Hyaluronate
We are an agency for sodium hyaluronate. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a carbohydrate which occurs naturally throughout the human body. It can be several thousands of sugars (carbohydrates) long. When not bound to other molecules, it binds to water giving it a stiff viscous quality similar to “Jello”. This viscous Gel is one of the most heavily researched substances in medicine today with thousands of clinical trials mostly in the fields of orthopedics and eye surgery. Its function in the body is, amongst other things, to bind water and to lubricate movable parts of the body, such as joints and muscles. Its consistency and tissue-friendliness allows it to be used in skin-care products as an excellent moisturizer. Hyaluronic acid is one of the most hydrophilic (water-loving) molecules in nature and can be described as “nature’s moisturizer”.
Applications for sodium hyaluronate include eye drops, contact lens solution, topical preparations, cell culture media and oral pharmaceutical preparations. Contact us for free samples and more information on sodium hyaluronate and how it may serve your application.
