The invention relates to a low molecular weight sulfate chondroitin and a preparation method thereof. A low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate with the average molecular weight of less than 1000 Dalton can be obtained by a production process of chondroitin sulfate lyase degradation, deproteinization, filtration and sterilization and drying using macromolecular sulfate chondroitin as a raw material. The low molecular weight Chondroitin sulfate has a narrow molecular weight distribution range, the ratio of chondroitin sulfate disaccharide is 43˜60% and the ratio of chondroitin sulfate tetrasaccharide is 30˜45%, the sum of chondroitin sulfate disaccharide and chondroitin sulfate tetrasaccharide is more than 87%, the total oligosaccharide content of low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate is more than 97% and the protein content is less than 0.5%; Compared with the general market macromolecule chondroitin sulfate, the product has more remarkable repair effect at the concentration of 50˜100 μg/mL on chondrocytes damaged by 1 mM hydrogen peroxide, with strong repair ability and repair rate of 14%˜23%. The low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate can be used to treat joint injury and is an important raw material for medical products, health care products, cosmetics and food.

The invention is directed to a biological bandage derived from fish skin (e.g. tilapia skin) that can be used with healing of wounds such as burn wounds. The edible property of the fish skin biological bandage according to various embodiments makes it suitable for both human and veterinary medicine.
