<p>L-Psicose is a monosaccharide that is the only metabolite of D-fructose. It is found in many living organisms, such as bacteria and fungi. L-Psicose has been shown to inhibit ribitol dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in the production of ribitol, which catalyzes the conversion of ribitol to ribulose 5-phosphate. Ribulose 5-phosphate is an important precursor molecule for glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathways. In addition, L-psicose has been shown to bind to proteins through hydrogen bonding, which may prevent the protein from folding properly or interacting with other molecules. This binding can lead to cell death if it inhibits essential cellular functions.</p>

<p>This beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) derivative is a functionalized cyclic oligosaccharide composed of seven glucose units, characterized by a hydrophilic exterior and a lipophilic cavity (bigger than α-CD and smaller than γ-CDs), which allows it to encapsulate various guest molecules. This structural feature facilitates its use in multiple applications, including pharmaceuticals, food enhancement, and cosmetics. In the pharmaceutical industry, it enhances the solubility and stability of poorly water-soluble drugs, improving their bioavailability and efficacy while also masking unpleasant tastes. The food sector utilizes it as a stabilizer for flavors, colors, and nutrients, extending shelf life by protecting sensitive ingredients from degradation. In cosmetics, it serves as a complexing agent for fragrances and active components, ensuring their stability and controlled release. Its use expands to many other fields, including nanotechnology for drug delivery systems, environmental remediation for extracting organic pollutants, textiles for slow-release fragrances, and analytical chemistry for chiral separation.</p>

<p>L-Sorbitol is a polyhydric alcohol that is found in various natural products, such as fruits and vegetables. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of strains of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, which is an opportunistic pathogen of human and animal cells. L-Sorbitol can be used to treat bacterial infections by inhibiting the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins. This compound has also been shown to prevent dehydration in bacteria by acting as an osmotic agent. The effect of L-sorbitol on the growth of bacteria depends on the pH of the environment in which it is dissolved. The optimum pH for this compound is 7.5</p>

<p>4-Aminophenyl β-D-Glucuronide can be used to analyse acetaminophen and other metabolites in plasma.</p>

<p>The enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase, which is located in the cytosol of cells, catalyzes the conversion of ethanol to acetaldehyde. In this reaction, a hydrogen ion (H+) is abstracted from ethanol and two electrons (e-) are added to the molecule. The addition of these electrons results in the formation of a hydrogen bond between the alcohol and an electron-donating species such as water or octyl glucopyranoside. Octyl glucopyranoside is a detergent that has been used as a substrate for measuring rates of alcohol dehydrogenase. This detergent also has been shown to be effective at removing glycol ethers from biological samples.<br>The biochemical research on octyl glucopyranoside includes its use as an equilibrative nucleoside and its effect on bowel disease.</p>

<p>Starch is an energy storing polysaccharide produced by higher plants and some algae. Pure starch is a white, tasteless and odorless powder that is insoluble in cold water or alcohol. It consists of two types of polysaccharide: the linear and helical amylose (α-1,4-linked glucose) and the branched amylopectin (α-1,4 and α-1,6-linked glucose). Depending on the plant, starch generally contains 20 to 25% amylose and 75 to 80% amylopectin by weight.</p>

<p>This gamma-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) derivative is a modified cyclic oligosaccharide composed of eight glucose units, featuring a larger cavity size than α- and β-cyclodextrins. This structural characteristic allows γ-CDs to form inclusion complexes with a wider range of guest molecules, making it particularly versatile in various industries. In the food sector, it is used as a carrier and stabilizer for flavors, fat-soluble vitamins, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, protecting volatile compounds from evaporation. In pharmaceuticals, it enhances the solubility and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs and, thanks to its larger ring size, allows for the encapsulation of larger molecules or even entire drug molecules. γ-CDs and derivatives are also used for environmental remediation and, in analytical chemistry, for the extraction and concentration of target substances.</p>
