N-Sulfo-glucosamine potassium salt is a natural amino sugar that is synthesized by the body and can be found in animal tissue. It and chondroitin sulfate are important components of cartilage and synovial fluid. Both substances are necessary for the production of collagen, which provides strength and elasticity to connective tissues.

Potassium ((2R,3R,4S,5R)-3,4,5,6-Tetrahydroxy-1-oxohexan-2-yl)sulfamate is used in preparation of Fructosazine with chitin biomass.
