Heparins are highly-sulfated glycosaminoglycan derived from porcine or bovine mucosal tissues. Native heparin has a molecular weight range of 3 - 40 kDa, while most commercial preparations are 12-15 kDa. Heparin is composed of variably-sulfated disaccharide repeating units, predominantly a 2-O-sulfated iduronic acid and 6-O-sulfated, N-sulfated glucosamine, IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S). They are used as injectable anticoagulants or for anticoagulant surface in medical devices. Low molecular weight heparins have been introduced more recently as effective therapeutics.
