Ref. 3D-MX07382

Product Information

• Name: D-Xylonic acid calcium salt hydrate
• Synonyms: Calcium D-xylonate hydrate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: D-Xylonic acid calcium salt hydrate is a product that is made from the hydrolysis of cellulose. It is a byproduct of the production of d-xylose and can be used as a nutritional supplement or an additive in animal feed. D-Xylonic acid calcium salt hydrate has been shown to have an uptake rate in aerobic conditions that is ten times higher than glucose, which makes it more economical for use in the production of d-xylose. D-Xylonic acid calcium salt hydrate can be catalyzed to produce yields for d-glucose and d-xylose, which are both important monosaccharides. The catalytic process also produces d-gluconic acid and aerobic oxidation produces d-xylose, making it possible to recycle these products.
