CAS 131-48-6 Nutrition Supplement Sialic Acid N-Acetylneuraminic Acid
Product Description
Sialic acid (SA), whose scientific name is "N-acetylneuraminic acid", sialic acid is a kind of natural carbohydrate compound that exists widely in the biological system. It was first isolated by Blix from the mucin of the bovine mandibular salivary gland, so it was named sialic acid.
Sialic acid is a generic term for the N- or O-substituted derivatives of neuraminic acid, a monosaccharide with a nine-carbon backbone.

The hydroxyl substituents may vary considerably; acetyl, lactyl, methyl, sulfate, and phosphate groups have been found. The term "sialic acid".
