Glucosamine Hydrochloride, English D - Glucosamine Hydrochloride, molecular formula C6H13NO5 · HCl, molecular weight of 215.5, white crystal, no smell, slightly sweet taste, easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in methanol, insoluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, it has important physiological functions to human body, participate in the liver and kidney detoxification, give play to the role of anti-inflammatory protect liver, to treat rheumatoid joint inflammation and ulcers have good curative effect, is the main raw material for the synthesis of antibiotics and anticancer drugs, can also be used in food, cosmetics and feed additives.


Glucosamine hydrochloride is extracted from natural chitin, which is a kind of Marine biological preparation. It can promote the synthesis of mucopolysaccharide in human body, improve the viscosity of synovial fluid, and improve the metabolism of articular cartilage. It is used to synthesize water-soluble anticancer drug chlorurethromycin, which has the anticancer property of nitroso urea compounds, and has the feature of less toxicity of inhibiting bone marrow. It has certain effect on melanoma, lung cancer, kidney cancer, etc. Supplementation with glucosamine media enhances n-glycation of secreted proteins and affects cell line variation such as ring cells and stem cells. Glucosamine, an amino sugar, is the precursor of the biosynthesis route of hexosamine, leading to the formation of udp-n-acetylglucosamine (udp-glcnac), which is subsequently used in the preparation of mucopolysaccharides, proteoglycans, and glycolipids.
