Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is an endogenous substance that has been shown to be a potent estrogen. It is metabolized in the body to form stilbestrol glucuronide, which is excreted in the urine. Radiolabeling studies have shown that DES has a chemical structure similar to estradiol, although its pharmacologic effects are not as potent. Diethylstilbestrol glucuronide can be used for the diagnosis of cancer and other diseases by using nuclear medicine techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Studies have also demonstrated that DES can induce erythropoietic protoporphyria in animals.

N-Acetyl D-mannosamine (ManNAc) is an aldohexose (2-acetamido-2-deoxymannose) in which the axial hydroxyl group at position 2 is replaced by a N-acetyl group (Collins, 2006). It has been reported that N-acetyl D-mannosamine supplementation, may provide novel means to break the link between obesity and hypertension (Peng, 2019). N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine are the essential precursors of sialic acid, the specific monomer of polysialic acid, a bacterial pathogenic determinant, for example, Escherichia coli K1 uses both amino sugars as carbon sources. It has been reported that ManNAc can be used as a treatment for hereditary inclusion body myopathy, an adult-onset, progressive neuromuscular disorder and also for renal disorders involving proteinuria and hematuria due to podocytopathy and/or segmental splitting of the glomerular basement membrane (Galeano, 2007).

Substrate for N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases

Ethyl b-D-galactopyranoside is a galactosylated glycoside that can be synthesized by the transfer of an acetyl group from ethyl alcohol to a sugar. It has antibacterial activity and is used in solvents as a stabilizer. The chemical structure of this compound consists of two benzene rings with an -OH group on one end, which are linked together by a covalent bond. The spacing between these two benzene rings is important for the stability of this compound, and it will break down when there is not enough space for the electron clouds to interact with each other. Ethyl b-D-galactopyranoside has been shown to be effective against tuberculosis bacteria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Mycobacterium avium complex.

Glucosylceramide (Glc-Cer) is the common precursor in the biosynthesis of most glycosphingolipids, with exception of some Gal-Cer derivatives, such as, GM4. Glucosylceramide consists of a glucosyl moiety which is β-O-glycosydically linked to ceramide, which itself, consists of the long-chain aminoalcohol sphingosine and a fatty acid. Glucosylceramide (also called glucocerebroside) is synthesised enzymatically, by the glucosylceramide synthase-catalysed with the addition of a glucose residue to ceramide. Glucosylceramide is involved in the regulation of various cellular events and also serves as a main constituent in liposome formulations.

Alpha-Chloralose (max. 20% beta-anomer) is a chemical compound primarily used as a sedative and for rodent control. It is synthesized through a chemical reaction involving glucose and chloral, creating a substance with unique physiological properties. Its mode of action primarily involves depressing the central nervous system, leading to reduced responsiveness and hypothermia in targeted organisms. Alpha-Chloralose induces symptoms that facilitate its application as a tranquilizer, particularly in small mammals and birds during scientific research. Additionally, due to its efficacy in lowering metabolic rates, it is utilized as a rodenticide. Within this context, it serves to humanely control rodent populations by inducing hypothermic conditions, leading to a humane death. Its dual functionality—both as a sedative and a rodenticide—makes it a versatile tool in scientific research and pest management. The specification of a maximum 20% beta-anomer content ensures a standardized formulation, enhancing its reliability and consistency for experimental and practical applications.
