Description

D-erythrulose is a monosaccharide with the chemical structure of erythrose. It is structurally related to glycolaldehyde, which is a precursor in the biosynthesis of ribose. D-Erythrulose has been used for diagnosis and identification of various bacteria, such as C. glutamicum and Brucella species, by serological tests, as well as for the detection of gene products in E. coli K-12 cells. The determination of ATP levels in Brucella species has also been performed using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) after incubation with D-erythrulose.
