Polysaccharides
Polysaccharides are organic compounds formed by the union of multiple monomers, which are joined together by glycosidic bonds to create large and often branched molecules. These complex carbohydrates play crucial roles in various biological functions, including energy storage, structural support, and cell-cell communication. In this section, you will find a diverse range of polysaccharides essential for research in biochemistry, molecular biology, and glycoscience. These compounds are vital for studying metabolic pathways, cell wall structures, and the therapeutic potential of carbohydrates. At CymitQuimica, we provide high-quality polysaccharides to support your scientific research, ensuring precision and reliability in your experimental outcomes.

Exopolysaccharide - from Flavobacterium
Bacterial exopolysaccharide from gram negative Flavobacterium spp.Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:White To Yellow Or Brown SolidHyaluronic acid sodium salt - Low molecular weight 10,000 - 50,000
CAS:Gycosaminoglycan in many organs; joint lubricant and shock absorberFormula:(C14H20NO11Na)nPurity:Min. 95.0%Color and Shape:PowderGlucurono-xylomannan polysaccharide from Tremella fuciformis
CAS:The polysaccharide, known as glucuronoxylomannan - produced by fruit bodies and in pure culture conditions - has been shown to consist of a mannan backbone that is glycosylated with xylan and glucuronic acid chains in a regular repeating structure. Laboratory tests have associated a number of biological activities with Cryptococcus neoformans glucuronoxylomannan, including immunostimulatory, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, hypocholesterolemic, hepatoprotective, and antiallergic effects. The image was kindly provided by Dr. Chris Lawson.Purity:(%) Min. 60%Color and Shape:White Off-White PowderRhodamine B isothiocyanate-dextran - Average MW 70,000
The fluorescence intensity of these Rhodamine B isothiocyanate-dextrans varies much less than with FITC-dextrans.Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:7,000 g/molFucoidan, cladosiphon
CAS:A fucan sulphate found in brown marine algae (Phaeophyta-typically Fucus vesiculotus, Ascophyllum nodosum, Alaria and Cladosiphon (illustrated) and has been shown to have anticoagulant activity. The main constituents are α-1,4 and α-1,2 linked L-fucose sulphates although galactose also occurs and there are many variations of the basic structure found in different species of Phaeophyta. The fucose content of the fucan is approx. 51% and it also contains galactose (approx. 6.3%), uronic acid (approx. 15.5%) and sulfate (approx. 25%).

CAS:Formula:C20H36O14Purity:95%Color and Shape:SolidMolecular weight:500.4914Cellotriose
CAS:Formula:C18H32O16Purity:>95.0%(HPLC)Color and Shape:White to Almost white powder to crystalMolecular weight:504.44Amylopectin - from potato starch
CAS:Starch component; highly branched glucanColor and Shape:White Off-White PowderHydroxyethyl cellulose, viscosity 1500 ~ 2500
CAS:Hydroxyethyl cellulose (EHEC) is a non-ionic, water-soluble cellulose derivative produced by introduction of ethylene oxide groups to the hydroxyl groups of the cellulose backbone. Hydroxyethyl cellulose is useful as a water thickener, rheological control additive, protective colloid, binder, stabilizer, suspending agent and film former. It is used in many industrial applications including latex paints, emulsion polymerization, petroleum, paper, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and many other applications.Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderLaminaran, from laminaria digitata
CAS:Laminaran is a polysaccharide that co-occurs with fucoidan and alginate in brown seaweeds such as Laminaria digitata, Laminaria cloustoni, Eisenia bicyclis and Thallus laminariae. It is a β-1,3-linked glucan which it is claimed stimulates the immune system in mammals and fish. The image was kindly provided by Prof Mike Guiry from Cork who runs ‘The Seaweed Site’.Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:Off-White PowderChondroitin sulfate A sodium salt - Average MW 10,000 - 30,000
CAS:The disaccharide repeating unit of chondroitin sulphate consists of N-acetyl galactosamine sulphate linked β1,4 to glucuronic acid. Each monosaccharide may be left unsulphated, sulphated once, or sulphated twice. The most common pattern has the hydroxyl groups of the 4 and 6 positions of the N-acetyl-galactosamine sulphated, with some chains having the position 2 of the glucuronic acid sulphated.Purity:Min. 90%Color and Shape:White Off-White PowderLaminaran - from Laminaria cloustoni
