Heparan sulphate by-products from the commercial manufacture of pig mucosal heparin were freed of chondroitin sulphate and fractionated according to anionic density. The fractions were treated with HNO2 at pH 1.5, and the resulting mixtures of oligosaccharides were reduced with NaB3H4 and analysed for their disaccharide composition by paper chromatography and by high-pressure liquid chromatography. The results show that the molar ratio of 2-O-sulpho-alpha-L-iduronosylanhydromannose to 6-O-sulpho-(2-O-sulpho-alpha-L-iduronosyl)anhydromannose decreased from 2.5 to 0.04 as the degree of sulphation of the fractions increased. In contrast, the molar ratio of 6-O-sulpho-(beta-D-glucuronosyl)anhydromannose to 6-O-sulpho-(alpha-L-iduronosyl)anhydromannose was approx. 2.4 in all heparan sulphate fractions and decreased to only half of this value in the most highly sulphated heparin fractions. These results are consistent with biosynthetic studies, which have shown that the N-sulpho-(2-O-sulpho-alpha-L-iduronosyl)D-glucosamine disaccharide is the metabolic precursor of the NO-disulpho-(2-O-sulpho-alpha-L-iduronosyl)-D-glucosamine disaccharide in heparin biosynthesis. The high-pressure liquid chromatography of the heparan sulphate oligosaccharides also revealed a number of unidentified oligosaccharides in the deamination mixtures.

Molecular weights were independently determined on nitrous acid depolymerized LMW heparin fractions ranging from 2-15 daltons using the analytical ultracentrifuge and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC).Sedimentation-diffusion equilibria were obtained in the analytical ultracentrifuge using speeds ranging from 20,000 to 56,000 rpm. Near theta conditions were obtained using 0.5M NaCl as the solvent. Calculations of molecular weight distributions and, from those figures, weight average molecular weights were made using the method described by Scholte (N.Y. Acad Sci. 164, 156, 1969). The results show that weight average values as low as 2,000 daltons can be determined.Sedimentation-diffusion equilibria were obtained in the analytical ultracentrifuge using speeds ranging from 20,000 to 56,000 rpm.

The results show that weight average values as low as 2,000 daltons can be determined.The HPLC results were obtained using previously described methods (Fed Proc. 36, 89, 1977) and a new highly efficient gel column (TSK gels). Fractionated dextrans were used as reference standards.
