Heparin, ≥100 U/mg, 250 mg

Product Description

Heparin is a polymer classified as a mucopolysaccharide or a glycosoaminoglycan. It is biosynthesized and stored in mast cells of various mammalian tissues, particularly liver, lung and mucosa.

Application Notes

Heparin is typically used as an anticoagulant. It binds to antithrombin III, a naturally occurring plasma protease inhibitor, accelerating the rate at which antithrombin III inhibits coagulation proteases (factor Xa and thrombin).
