Chondroitin sulfate sodium salt

Chemical properties

White or almost white, hygroscopic powder. soluble in water. Insoluble in acetone, ethanol and other organic solvents. The aqueous solution is viscous, and the viscosity decreases when acid or alkali is added. It has ion exchange property, and can form various metal salts with cations to precipitate. Hydrolyze with 5mol/L hydrochloric acid at 37°C for 3 hours, and lose sulfuric acid to form chondroitin. Sodium chondroitin sulfate is extracted from shark bone.
