Product Information

• Name: 1,5-α-L-Arabinohexaose
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1,5-α-L-Arabinohexaose is a carbohydrate. It is a nonreducing sugar that can be found in plants. 1,5-α-L-Arabinohexaose has an optimum pH of 5 and an ethanol concentration of 0.02%. The enzyme form of 1,5-α-L-Arabinohexaose is α-(1→6)-glycosidase. This enzyme hydrolyzes the α-(1→6) glycosidic bond between two glucose residues in a polysaccharide chain to produce β-(1→4) bonds. It also hydrolyzes the β-(1→4) glycosidic bond between two galactose residues to produce β-(1→2) bonds and oxidizes the terminal carbon atom to produce aldehyde products.A structural analysis of this carbohydrate was conducted using marine microorganisms and it was found that they contain galacturonic acid and sugar residues
