Recent research into the purification of Hyaluronic acid (HA) from
the vitreous humor of fish has shown great promise. This method is highly
efficient and easier than derivation from rooster combs and other
traditional sources of HA.
Specifically, scientists have pinpointed a way to derive highly pure
Hyaluronic acid from the vitreous humor of fish. This method has the
potential to be extremely important for the commercial Hyaluronic acid
market as it provides an easy, safe and economical way to synthesize high
amounts of Hyaluronic acid. If patent approved, the process could
make Hyaluronic acid products even more readily available and could help
scientists in the search for uses of Hyaluronic acid other than Hyaluronic
acid injections, supplements, beauty products, liquids and serums.
The specific protocol to obtain pure HA from vitreous humor of fish
consists of the following:
1: Using platinum electrodes for protein electrodeposition.
2.
Diafiltration, which reduces ethanol consumption
3: Redissolution of
the pellet
4: Alkaline treatment of concentrated extracts
There are many competitive advantages to this new process of creating
hyaluronic acid. The two most compelling advantages are that the process
results in higher quality HA, and requires less alcohol use which makes
the process easier and more economical.
