D-Glucosamine Sulphate 2KCL
Definition: Glucosamine is a natural compound found in cartilage — the tough tissue that cushions joints. The D-Glucosamine HCL as a supplementation is made by fermentation.

Application: It's vegan and plays a role in joint health, cartilage growth, and synovial fluid formation. People use glucosamine sulfate orally to treat a painful condition caused by the inflammation, breakdown and eventual loss of cartilage (osteoarthritis).

Form: There are several forms of glucosamine, including glucosamine sulfate, glucosamine hydrochloride and N-acetyl glucosamine.


D-Glucosamine HCL
Definition: The D-Glucosamine HCL is sourced from Shrimp and Crab Shells Glucosamine (C6H13NO5) It is an amino sugar and a prominent precursor in the biochemical synthesis of glycosylated proteins and lipids. Glucosamine is part of the structure of two polysaccharides, chitosan and chitin. Glucosamine is one of the most abundant monosaccharides. Produced commercially by the hydrolysis of shellfish exoskeletons or, less commonly, by fermentation of a grain such as corn or wheat, glucosamine has many names depending on country.

Application: It plays a role in joint health, cartilage growth, and synovial fluid formation.


N-Acetyl D-Glucosamine
Definition: N-acetyl glucosamine is a chemical that comes from the outer shells of shellfish.N-Acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) is an amide derivative of the monosaccharide glucose. It is a secondary amide between glucosamine and acetic acid. It is significant in several biological systems. It is part of a biopolymer in the bacterial cell wall, which is built from alternating units of GlcNAc and N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc), cross-linked with oligopeptides at the lactic acid residue of MurNAc. This layered structure is called peptidoglycan (formerly called murein). GlcNAc is the monomeric unit of the polymer chitin, which forms the exoskeletons of arthropods like insects and crustaceans. It is the main component of the radulas of mollusks, the beaks of cephalopods, and a major component of the cell walls of most fungi. Polymerized with glucuronic acid, it forms hyaluronan. GlcNAc has been reported to be an inhibitor of elastase release from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (range 8–17% inhibition), however this is much weaker than the inhibition seen with N-acetylgalactosamine (range 92–100%)

Application: It plays a role in joint health, cartilage growth, and synovial fluid formation.
