Produktinformation

• Name: b-D-Galactoheptose
• Synonyme: D-Glycero-L-gluco-heptose
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: B-D-Galactoheptose is a short-chain carbohydrate that is found in Citrus. It can be used as a food additive, but it also serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of other sugars. The stereospecificity of this sugar is determined by the orientation of its hydroxyl group on carbon atom 2. This sugar has been shown to inhibit the growth of food-borne pathogens, such as Salmonella and Staphylococcus, and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. The biosynthesis of b-D-galactoheptose begins with the conversion of glucose into erythrose 4 phosphate. This process requires ATP and pyruvate kinase and proceeds through two reactions: erythrose 4 phosphate dehydrogenase, which converts erythrose 4 phosphate into erythronate 4 phosphate; and aldolase, which converts erythronate 4 phosphate into b-D
