Heparin ammonium

Heparin ammonium salt is mainly used in blood collection tubes for assays that measure ammonia levels, acting as an anticoagulant alternative to sodium heparin when high sodium levels would interfere with test results. It is a specific form of heparin used to preserve blood sample integrity and prevent clotting during analysis, particularly in laboratory settings, though its general use for preventing blood clots in clinical settings is less common than other heparin salts. Its therapeutic use is listed as adhesion-prevention agents, anticoagulants and cardiovascular. The directory classifies it as a commercial API with a natural source/manufacturing origin. Other names for this substance include OH08957 and Heparin derived dp22 saccharide ammonium salt. Its PubChem CID is 172642703.
