We provide customized and high-quality N-Acetyl-2-O-methyl-a-D-neuraminic acid methyl ester product for your project.

N-Acetyl-2-O-methyl-a-D-neuraminic acid methyl ester (NAMME) is a synthetically-derived sialic acid variant that has been harnessed extensively in biomedicine as an impediment to sialidase enzymes. Its pleiotropic nature of anti-viral and anti-bacterial effects along with its anti-tumor prowess has fueled scientific interest in NAMME. Its molecular dexterity to actuate viral cell entry inhibition substantiates its potential as a therapeutic agent for numerous pathologies ranging from influenza, HIV to cancer. Adding feather to its cap, NAMME exhibits a remarkable synergism with select chemotherapeutic drugs, conferring a unique therapeutic edge in cancer treatment. Hence, NAMME continues to serve as an invaluable tool for biomedical researchers fighting the war against major human diseases.
