Sucrufosfaat
Sucrufosfaat is a chemical compound. It is an aluminum salt of sulfated sucrose. Its chemical formula is not universally agreed upon and can vary depending on the specific preparation and degree of sulfation. Sucrufosfaat is often encountered as a white to off-white powder. It is poorly soluble in water and most organic solvents. Historically, sucrufosfaat has been investigated and used for its gastroprotective properties. It acts by forming a protective layer on the surface of the stomach lining, which can help to shield the mucosa from damage caused by stomach acid and pepsin. This mechanism of action has led to its application in the management of certain gastrointestinal conditions. While its use has been more prevalent in some regions than others, it is recognized for its ability to promote healing of gastric and duodenal ulcers. The exact method of administration and dosage would depend on the specific formulation and intended therapeutic effect. Further research may explore additional applications or refine its current uses.
