d sorbitol

D-Sorbitol (Sorbitol) is a polyhydric alcohol with about half the sweetness of sucrose, occurring naturally and also produced synthetically from glucose. Formerly used as a diuretic, it may still be used as a laxative and in irrigating solutions for certain surgical procedures. It is also utilized in various manufacturing processes, as a pharmaceutical aid, and in several research applications.

Maltitol (4-O-α-glucopyranosyl-D-sorbitol) is a sugar alcohol (polyol) used as a sugar substitute.

D-Sorbitol (Standard) is the standard substance of D-Sorbitol, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. D-Sorbitol (Sorbitol) is a polyhydric alcohol with about half the sweetness of sucrose. D-Sorbitol occurs naturally and is also produced synthetically from glucose. It was formerly used as a diuretic and may still be used as a laxative and in irrigating solutions for some surgical procedures. It is also used in many manufacturing processes, as a pharmaceutical aid, and in several research applications.

D-Sorbitol hexaacetate is a reagent used in biochemical reactions.

D-Mannitol (Mannitol) is a diuretic and renal diagnostic aid related to sorbitol. It has little significant energy value as it is largely eliminated from the body before any metabolism can take place. It can be used to treat oliguria associated with kidney failure or other manifestations of inadequate renal function and has been used for determination of glomerular filtration rate. D-Mannitol is also commonly used as a research tool in cell biological studies, usually to control osmolarity.

Sorbitol-6-phosphate 2-dehydrogenase, a dehydrogenase enzyme produced by Escherichia coli, catalyzes the interconversion of D-sorbitol 6-phosphate and D-fructose 6-phosphate. The enzyme oxidizes D-sorbitol 6-phosphate at a rate ten times faster than it reduces D-fructose 6-phosphate, playing a role in various cellular processes.

Isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside (Isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-D-Glucoside) inhibits the activity of alpha-glucosidase from rat intestine; it exhibits a potent rat lens aldose reductase (RLAR) inhibition in vitro, its IC(50) being 1.4 microM and has inhibitory effects of sorbitol accumulation, suggests that it is a leading compound for further study as a new drug for the prevention and/or treatment of diabetes and its complications.

Maltitol (Standard) is the standard substance of Maltitol, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. Maltitol (4-O-α-glucopyranosyl-D-sorbitol) is a sugar alcohol (polyol) used as a sugar substitute.

Isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside (Standard) is a reference standard for research and analysis in studies involving Isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside. Isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside (Isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-D-Glucoside) inhibits the activity of alpha-glucosidase from rat intestine; it exhibits a potent rat lens aldose reductase (RLAR) inhibition in vitro, its IC(50) being 1.4 microM and has inhibitory effects of sorbitol accumulation, suggests that it is a leading compound for further study as a new drug for the prevention and/or treatment of diabetes and its complications.
