Product Information

• Name: 6-O-Methyl-D-glucose
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 6-O-Methyl-D-glucose is a non-carbohydrate that can be found in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is an electron microscopic study of proton and fatty acid molecules, which has shown that the cell membrane of mycobacterial cells are susceptible to inhibition by fatty acids. 6-O-Methyl-D-glucose is a nucleophilic attack on cellular fatty acids, which may inhibit their synthesis and lead to cell death. 6-O-Methyl-D-glucose has been shown to be synthesized from glucose and glycosylated with hydroxyl groups during biosynthesis. This chemical is also used in the synthesis of oligosaccharides because it has a molecular weight of 180, making it more easily scalable than other carbohydrates.
