  • Applications

    L-(+)-Arabinose (CAS 5328-37-0) is a plant-derived pentose sugar obtained mainly from corn fiber, beet pulp and wood hemicellulose; it is widely used as a low-calorie sweetener in food, as a sucrase inhibitor to help modulate postprandial glycemia in nutraceuticals, as a selective carbon source in microbial media and as an inducer for genes under the araBAD promoter in molecular biology, as a fermentation feedstock for bio-ethanol and xylitol, as an HPLC analytical standard, and as a building block for pharmaceutical intermediates and biodegradable polymers.
