:neoagarohexaose
Description:
Neoagarohexaose is a oligosaccharide derived from agar, a polysaccharide obtained from red algae. It consists of six repeating units of neoagarobiose, which is a disaccharide made up of agarose and agarobiose. Neoagarohexaose is characterized by its unique structure, which includes alternating D-galactose and L-galactose units linked by glycosidic bonds. This compound is soluble in water and exhibits gel-forming properties, making it useful in various applications, including food, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. Its ability to form gels at low concentrations is particularly valuable in the development of culture media for microbiological studies. Additionally, neoagarohexaose has potential prebiotic effects, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. The compound is generally recognized as safe for consumption, but its specific biological activities and health benefits are still under investigation. Overall, neoagarohexaose represents a significant component of agar-derived products, contributing to their functional properties in various industries.

Neoagarohexaose
CAS:<p>Agarose is a polysaccharide found in red algae, typically Gelidium and Gracilaria. It is a strictly alternating polysaccharide of α-1,3 linked D-galactose and β-1,4 linked L-3,6 anhydrogalactose with occasional sulfation at position 6 of the anhydrogalactose residue. Agaro-oligosaccharides result from cleavage at galactose residues and neoagaro-oligosaccharides from cleavage at 3,6-anhydro residues. Neoagarohexaose is reported to have potential for novel cosmeceuticals.</p>Formula:C36H56O28Purity:Min. 98 Area-%Color and Shape:White PowderMolecular weight:936.81 g/mol
