Chondroitin Sulfate ELISA kits are designed for the specific detection of chondroitin sulfate in biological samples. Chondroitin sulfate is a compound that is metabolized in humans and can be detected in serum samples. It has the chemical formula (C14H21NO17S2)nH2O. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a linear heteropolysaccharide consisting of glucuronic acid and galactosamine, commonly sulfated at C-4 and/or C-6 of galactosamine. It is a type of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) covalently linked to proteins forming proteoglycans (PGs). CS has diverse structures, with varying sulfate group locations, and is involved in multiple enzyme activities, including transferases and sulfotransferases.
