CAS 87-99-0
:Xylitol
Description:
Xylitol, with the CAS number 87-99-0, is a sugar alcohol (polyol) commonly used as a sweetener. It is a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has a sweetness comparable to that of sucrose, but with fewer calories. Xylitol is naturally found in small amounts in various fruits and vegetables, as well as in the bark of birch trees, which is where it was first extracted. It has a low glycemic index, making it a popular choice for diabetic-friendly products. Additionally, xylitol is known for its dental health benefits, as it can inhibit the growth of cavity-causing bacteria in the mouth. Its chemical formula is C5H12O5, and it has a molecular weight of approximately 152.15 g/mol. Xylitol is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by food safety authorities, although it can cause gastrointestinal discomfort in some individuals when consumed in large amounts. It is widely used in sugar-free gum, candies, and oral care products.

CAS:<p>Xylitol is a sugar alcohol that can be found in some plants, including berries and corn husks. It is also produced by the body during normal metabolism. Xylitol has been shown to have antimicrobial properties against aerobacter aerogenes, a bacterium that inhabits the human gastrointestinal tract. Xylitol inhibits bacterial growth by binding to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which prevents the conversion of glucose into energy for cell growth and reproduction. Xylitol also affects the water balance of cells by inhibiting their ability to extract water vapor from their environment. Xylitol is metabolized by a number of bacteria strains, which leads to the production of hydrogen peroxide or xylose as an end product. The biochemical properties of xylitol are still being researched and it is not yet known how this compound interacts with other biological compounds.</p>Formula:C5H12O5Purity:Min. 98.5 Area-%Molecular weight:152.15 g/molXylitol - BP/EP
CAS:<p>Xylitol is a sugar alcohol that has been shown to have antimicrobial properties. It has been found to be effective in inhibiting the growth of bacteria, yeast, and fungi by disrupting their cell membranes. In addition, xylitol appears to have the ability to reduce plasma glucose levels in animals and humans. Xylitol has also been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria in acidic environments by binding with proteins on the bacterial cell membrane. This binding prevents the transport of nutrients into the cell and results in cell death. Xylitol is not metabolized by human cells because it cannot be broken down into acetaldehyde or acetate. However, xylitol can be metabolized by certain types of liver cells.<br>Xylitol BP/EP is a drug that belongs to the class of antidiabetic agents used for lowering blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes mellitus type II (insulin-dependent diabetes).
