D-galactopyranuronic acid

Description:

D-galactopyranuronic acid is a naturally occurring uronic acid derived from galactose, characterized by its six-membered pyranose ring structure. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water, reflecting its polar nature due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl (-OH) groups. This compound plays a significant role in the structure of pectin, a polysaccharide found in plant cell walls, contributing to the rigidity and stability of plant tissues. D-galactopyranuronic acid is known for its ability to form gels in the presence of calcium ions, which is crucial in food and pharmaceutical applications. Its chemical formula includes a carboxylic acid group, which imparts acidic properties, making it reactive in various biochemical processes. Additionally, it can participate in esterification and other chemical reactions, making it a versatile building block in organic synthesis. Overall, D-galactopyranuronic acid is important in both biological systems and industrial applications, particularly in the food industry as a gelling agent and stabilizer.

D-[UL-13C6]Galacturonic acid potassium salt

CAS: 685-73-4

D-[UL-13C6]Galacturonic acid potassium salt is a fatty acid that is used as a feedstock in the production of monoclonal antibodies. The 13C isotope provides information on the structure and function of proteins, such as enzyme activities and covalent linkages. D-[UL-13C6]Galacturonic acid potassium salt has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria and can be used for the treatment of infectious diseases. D-[UL-13C6]Galacturonic acid potassium salt binds to bacterial cell surfaces by interacting with hydroxyl groups on lipopolysaccharides, which are found on the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, preventing their replication and inhibiting their ability to form biofilms. D-[UL-13C6]Galacturonic acid potassium salt has also been shown to be effective against hyperproliferative disease cells, such as prostate cancer cells.
