Hialuronato de Sodio – Chinfield – 2 ml. (ARG)

Hialuronato de Sodio Chinfield

Joint repairing-Condroprotective.

At the beginning of the osteoarthrosis, the patients’ joints are characterized by the loss of proteoglycans molecules in the joint cartilage. These biochemical changes of the cartilage in the affected joints are not only given by the reduction of proteoglycans, but also of hialuronic acid. Sodium hyaluronate, (sodium salt of the hialuronic acid), is a natural polymer belonging to the glucose aminoglicans class (acid mucopolysaccharides).
Therefore, it is an essential component of the synovial liquid characterized by its viscoelasticity, hygroscopic and lubricating properties; all these qualities that protect the joints from pressure and friction, which the joint surfaces are subject to, and which generate with movement. The quality and characteristics of the synovial liquid are directly related to the animal’s joint health.
