D-Galactose-1-13C,99 atom % 13C

Description:

D-Galactose-1-13C,99 atom % 13C is a stable isotope-labeled form of D-galactose, a monosaccharide that is an important component of various polysaccharides and glycoproteins. The "1-13C" designation indicates that the carbon-13 isotope is specifically incorporated at the first carbon position of the galactose molecule, which is useful for metabolic studies and tracing pathways in biological systems. The "99 atom % 13C" signifies that nearly all of the carbon atoms in this compound are the carbon-13 isotope, enhancing its detectability in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. D-galactose itself is a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has a sweet taste. It plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism and is involved in the synthesis of lactose and other carbohydrates. The compound is often used in research to study carbohydrate metabolism, enzyme kinetics, and metabolic flux analysis. Its CAS number, 70849-30-8, uniquely identifies this specific isotope-labeled compound in chemical databases.
