N-Acetylneuraminic acid

Synonyms: Neu5Ac, NeuAc, Acido aceneuramico, Acide aceneuramique, Acidium aceneuramicum, Sialic acid

N-Acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac, NeuAc, Acido aceneuramico, Acide aceneuramique, Acidium aceneuramicum, Sialic acid, NANA) is the predominant sialic acid found in mammalian cells. Sialic acids are negatively charged monosaccharides attached to the end of sugar chains, giving rise to a wide variety of glycoproteins and glycolipids in biological fluids and cell membranes.

Biological Activity

Description N-Acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac, NeuAc, Acido aceneuramico, Acide aceneuramique, Acidium aceneuramicum, Sialic acid, NANA) is the predominant sialic acid found in mammalian cells. Sialic acids are negatively charged monosaccharides attached to the end of sugar chains, giving rise to a wide variety of glycoproteins and glycolipids in biological fluids and cell membranes.
In Vivo
In vivo N-Acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) could improve lipid metabolism and hyperlipidemia-associated coagulation. It prevents HFD-induced hypercholesterolemia and hypercoagulation through regulation of serum lipid levels, metabolic indices, and coagulation-related indices[2].

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
