Process for the isolation and purification of monosialoganglioside from a starting lipidic mixture by complexation with alpha-cyclodextrin and related intermediate compound

摘要

By ultrafiltration of an aqueous solution wherein there have been formerly dissolved alfa-cyclodextrin and a raw lipidic mixture, the latter characterized in that it contains monosialoganglioside (GM1) either as the sole ganglioside or otherwise in a prevailing quantity over the other associated gangliosides, and after the removal of cyclodextrin at the end of the process, it is obtained GM1 with a titer of at least 95%. The present invention concerns also the intermediate complex that it is being formed between the hereabove said monosialoganglioside and alfa-cyclodextrin.
