Product Information

• Name: Benzyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene-D-galactopyranoside
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Benzyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene-D-galactopyranoside is a modified odorant that binds to the olfactory receptors in the insect antenna. This compound is used as a research tool for studying the detection of odors. It can be used to identify compounds that act as insect attractants or repellents. The binding assays are performed in vitro using recombinant proteins and fluorescence assays. Binding studies have been shown to reveal mutants with altered binding properties to benzyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene -D--galactopyranoside.
