Product Description
N-Acetylneuraminic acid (commonly abbreviated as NANA) is a naturally occurring sialic acid that plays a pivotal role in a multitude of essential biological processes. NANA is instrumental in facilitating cellular communication, enhancing immune system regulation, and recognizing pathogens effectively. Recognized as one of the most prevalent forms of sialic acid in nature, it is omnipresent across a wide array of biological systems. This vital component is integral to the structure of glycoproteins, glycolipids, and glycosaminoglycans, gracing the surfaces of cells with its presence.
