Heparin is a mucopolysaccharide produced in mast cells and is present in various organs and blood, with the highest levels in the spleen, lungs, and muscles, where it has an inhibitory effect on coagulation. Among the mucopolysaccharides, heparin has the highest content of sulfate groups, and the sulfate root is negatively charged, thus interacting with various physiologically active substances. Heparin is a class of polyanionic substances that can induce suspension of individual cells by changing the charge on the cell surface and is a common additive in serum-free culture processes.
This product is derived from porcine intestinal mucosa.
