:D-Galactose-13C6 (9CI)
Description:
D-Galactose-13C6 (9CI) is a stable isotope-labeled form of D-galactose, a monosaccharide that is an important component of various polysaccharides and glycoproteins. The "13C6" designation indicates that all six carbon atoms in the galactose molecule are labeled with the stable isotope carbon-13, which is useful in metabolic studies and tracer experiments due to its non-radioactive nature. D-Galactose is a hexose sugar, characterized by its sweet taste and solubility in water. It plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism and is involved in the synthesis of lactose, glycolipids, and glycoproteins. The compound is typically white, crystalline, and hygroscopic. Its molecular formula is C6H12O6, and it exhibits optical activity, rotating plane-polarized light due to its chiral centers. D-Galactose-13C6 is utilized in various biochemical and pharmaceutical research applications, particularly in studies involving carbohydrate metabolism and the tracking of metabolic pathways.
