N-acetylneuraminic Acid

SA, short for sialic acids, is a class of derivatives of nine-carbon monosaccharide and the generic name of a group of chemical compounds. N-acetylneuraminic acid, NANA for short, is the most common form of sialic acid. NANA is found in various biological tissues mainly in the form of cell membrane glycoprotein and glycolipid and is most concentrated in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and colostrum. It is also widely found in nature, especially in edible bird’s nest, milk and eggs. Studies have shown that NANA has a variety of biological functions, for example neurotransmission, brain development promotion, whitening cosmetics, probiotic growth promotion, tumor control, virus control and AD treatment, etc.
