D-(+)-Glucosamine hydrochloride, >=99%, BioReagent, suitable for cell culture

Application

Glucosamine has been used as a standard to examine the concentration of glucosamine in the synovial fluid and its pharmacokinetics in serum.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucosamine, an amino sugar, is the precursor of the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway leading to the formation of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc), which is then used for making glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, and glycolipids. D-(+)-Glucosamine inhibits the coaggregation of Candida yeast species with the bacterial strain S. salivarius.

Glucosamine is preferred as a nutritional supplementfor individuals with osteoarthritis. It is used as a building block for the production of proteoglycansandglycosaminoglycans.
