The Chondroitin Sulfates of Healing Skin Wounds.

Abstract
The hexosamine containing substances of wound granulation tissue from rats have been investigated. Chondroitin sulfate A and chondroitin sulfate B were isolated and characterized. These 2 mucopolysaccharides, together with possible traces of hyaluronic acid account for less than 20% of the total hexosamine of the tissue. The remaining portion is considered to be associated with unidentified glycoproteins.
