• Application: Sodium hyaluronate, the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid, serves primarily as a highly effective humectant, drawing moisture into the skin by binding up to 1,800 times its weight in water. As a polysaccharide made up of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, it is an essential component in various medical and cosmetic applications due to its hygroscopic properties and versatility. Apart from enhancing hydration, it plays a key role in drug delivery systems, acting as a substrate for enzymes like hyaluronidase and is used in ocular surgeries to protect and lubricate tissues. Its immunoneutral characteristic enables its use in tissue engineering and drug delivery, while also providing therapeutic benefits in treating osteoarthritis and arthritic pain. Sodium hyaluronate is deeply integrated into connective, epithelial, and neural tissues, and remains crucial for its antifungal properties, prevention of thromboembolic complications, and potential as an aldosterone antagonist in chronic heart failure management.
