Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate)
Sodium hyaluronate — the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid, a linear glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine units. Produced via controlled microbial fermentation (non-animal) for consistent purity and molecular-weight control. HS offers food-grade, cosmetic-grade, and pharma-grade lines in multiple molecular-weight ranges, each optimized for a different delivery route.
CAS Number
9067-32-7
Physical Form
White to off-white fine powder
Typical Assay
≥93% sodium hyaluronate by HPLC; MW range documented per spec
Origins
Microbial fermentation (non-animal, vegan)
Purpose and Key Benefits
Oral: joint comfort and skin hydration. Topical: skin moisture retention and plumping. Cosmetic: film-forming and humectant. Lower-MW fractions penetrate deeper; higher-MW fractions sit on the surface for longer-lasting hydration.
Applications
Oral beauty-from-within supplements, joint supplements, topical serums and creams, cosmetic formulations, ophthalmic solutions (pharma grade), injectable viscosupplementation and dermal filler feedstock (pharma grade), medical-device precursors
