Product Information

• Name: Palatinose monohydrate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Palatinose monohydrate is a hydrogenated form of the natural disaccharide palatinose. It is often used as a solid catalyst in pharmaceutical preparations and has been shown to have a lower molecular weight than sucrose. Palatinose monohydrate may have beneficial effects on postprandial plasma glucose, protein data, and lipid metabolism. The hydrogenation process also produces fatty acids that are less reactive than those found in other sugars. Amine groups are also reduced in palatinose monohydrate, which may improve its taste. Palatinose monohydrate is not toxic at high doses and has been shown to be safe for use in toxicity studies. Surface methodology has been used to characterize the surface properties of palatinose monohydrate crystals, which can be used as a model for other sugar crystals.
