Product Information
Name:D-Fuculose
Synonyms:
- 6-Deoxy-D-tagatose
Brand:Biosynth
Description:D-Fuculose is a sugar that is used as a sweetener. It is produced by microbial fermentation of l-arabinose, which is an intermediate in the pentose phosphate pathway. D-Fuculose can be synthesized from glucose and fucose using enzymes such as sucrose isomerase or mutarotase. The conversion of glucose to D-fuculose proceeds at temperatures between 50 and 70 degrees Celsius, with optimal activity occurring at 60 degrees Celsius. D-Fuculose has been shown to have high catalytic activity and stability under acidic conditions, making it ideal for use as a food additive in acidic drinks or foods. It also has the highest sweetness intensity of all sugars tested to date.
