Degree of substitution: 1 mol % substitution and at least one dye molecule per polymer. Higher fluorescein substitution such as 5% is available through custom synthesis.

Properties

Heparin is a member of the glycosaminoglycan family of carbohydrates  (which includes the closely related molecule  heparan sulfate) and consists of a variably sulfated repeating  disaccharide unit. The most common disaccharide unit in heparin is composed of a 2-O-sulfated iduronic acid  and 6-O-sulfated, N-sulfated glucosamine, IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S).
