BUGA-Hyaluronic Acid from Rooster Comb
Product Info

BUGAMED Biotechnology produces hyaluronic acid, which is in the glycosaminoglycan group, from rooster combs with high purity. TS EN ISO standards are applied in the production of BUGA-Hyaluronic Acid from Rooster Comb (BUGA-HYA-RC) from rooster combs. In this context, within the scope of MDR and medical device regulations, TS EN ISO 10993-10, 17 and 18 and biocompatibility tests ISO 10993-5 standards are followed. BUGA-HYA-RC obtained from rooster combs has a high molecular weight (generally 2-4 MDa). In this direction, with its viscoelastic structure that can show both viscous and elastic properties, water retention capacity, and superior mechanical properties, injectable HA stands out with its use in intra-articular injections, dermal filler products and wound dressing material design processes.
• Biomedical
• Natural polymer for 3D printing
• Material Science
• Biochemistry and Cell culture studies
• Cosmetic creams and moisturizers
• Dermal filler products
• Osteoarthritis treatments
• Weigh BUGA-HYA-RC according to the desired concentration and transfer it to a mixing container.
• Depending on the solution you are using, add the measured HA to pure water, Sodium hydroxide solution, or PBS, and stir with a mechanical or magnetic stirrer until fully dissolved.
• To accelerate dissolution, keep the mixture at a temperature of 50°C.
• Continue with the same solvent used for diluting to the appropriate volume.
• For cross-linking studies, first activate the cross-linking agent with the solvent, then add BUGA-HYA-RC and mix for the optimal duration to achieve cross-linking.
• The temperature used to activate the cross-linking agent should be adjusted according to the activation degree of the agent.
• Once prepared, store the product at +4°C or room temperature.
• Homogenization is not recommended for highly concentrated solutions.
• Sodium hydroxide solution is recommended for studies requiring higher concentrations.
