Product Description
L-Diguluronic acid disodium is a linear polysaccharide copolymer consisting of two L-Guluronic acids and may be utilized to prepare alginic acid. L-Digluronic acid disodium is a general term for an unbranched polyanionic polysaccharide that may be utilized in carrier research for antifungal agents.
L-Digluronic acid disodium is the disodium salt form of L-Digluronic acid, a naturally occurring disaccharide composed of two L-glucuronic acid units linked by a beta(1→4) glycosidic bond. It is a disaccharide standard used for the preparation of hyaluronan oligosaccharides. It is used in research on glycosaminoglycan (GAG) metabolism, carbohydrate chemistry, and as an analytical standard for HPLC and LC-MS.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Not applicable. As a disaccharide standard, L-Digluronic acid disodium does not have a specific pharmacological target. It is used to study hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan) degradation products and as a building block for the synthesis of larger oligosaccharides. It is involved in research on glycosaminoglycan metabolism, particularly the degradation of hyaluronic acid by hyaluronidases, which produce unsaturated disaccharides.
ln Vitro
No in vitro biological activity has been reported. L-Digluronic acid disodium is a disaccharide standard used for analytical and biochemical purposes. It may be used in studies of glycosaminoglycan metabolism, as a substrate or product for enzymes involved in hyaluronic acid degradation, or as a reference standard for the quantification of hyaluronan oligosaccharides by HPLC or LC-MS. It is not a drug and is not used in cell-based assays for therapeutic evaluation.
ln Vivo
No in vivo activity has been reported. As a disaccharide standard, it is not administered as a therapeutic agent. It is used exclusively in analytical chemistry applications for quality control, method development, and as a reference standard in metabolomics and glycosaminoglycan research. It may be used as a substrate or inhibitor in studies of hyaluronidases and other GAG-degrading enzymes.
Enzyme Assay
Not applicable. As an analytical standard, L-Digluronic acid disodium is used in HPLC and LC-MS methods for the analysis of hyaluronic acid and its degradation products. A typical protocol involves dissolving the compound in water or mobile phase (e.g., 50 mM ammonium formate, pH 5.5) to prepare a stock solution of 1-10 mg/mL. Working standards are prepared by serial dilution. For HPLC analysis, 10-20 uL of the standard solution is injected into an HPLC system equipped with a C18 reversed-phase column and UV detection (e.g., 200-230 nm) or CAD (charged aerosol detection). For LC-MS, the compound is analyzed in negative ion mode, and the deprotonated molecule [M-H]- or disodium salt peaks are monitored. Calibration curves are constructed for quantification. No enzyme or receptor binding assays are applicable.
Cell Assay
Not applicable. L-Digluronic acid disodium is not typically used in cell-based assays. It is an analytical standard and disaccharide building block. For studies involving cultured cells, hyaluronan oligosaccharides (including the disaccharide unit) have been shown to have biological effects (e.g., modulation of inflammation, angiogenesis, and cell migration). However, the disodium salt of L-Digluronic acid is primarily an analytical standard, not a test article for cellular studies.
Animal Protocol
No animal studies are conducted with this compound as a test article. It is used as an analytical standard in pharmacokinetic or metabolism studies where hyaluronic acid or its degradation products are being measured in biological samples (e.g., plasma, urine, tissue extracts). The compound is spiked into samples as a standard for calibration or quality control purposes before LC-MS analysis.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
No pharmacokinetic data has been reported. L-Digluronic acid disodium is a disaccharide (molecular weight 378.22 g/mol as the disodium salt). As a highly polar, anionic carbohydrate, it is not orally bioavailable and is not absorbed systemically. It would be rapidly excreted unchanged in urine if administered intravenously. Its utility is as an analytical standard, not as a drug.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No toxicity data has been reported. L-Digluronic acid disodium is a disaccharide that is a normal component of hyaluronic acid degradation. Glucuronic acid and its disaccharides are generally considered safe and non-toxic. The compound is not intended for human consumption as a pure substance. Standard chemical safety precautions apply.
