monosaccharide

Sucrose (D-(+)-Saccharose) is a nonreducing disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose linked via their anomeric carbons.

N-Acetylneuraminic acid (Acide aceneuramique) is a nine-carbon sialic acid monosaccharide commonly found in glycoproteins on cell membranes and in glycolipids such as gangliosides in mammalian cells. Studies have shown that N-Acetylneuraminic acid is biologically useful for neurotransmission, leukocyte extravasation, viral or bacterial infections, and carbohydrate-protein recognition.

DL-Xylose ((±)-Xylos) is a sugar first derived from wood. DL-Xylose is classified as a monosaccharide of the aldopentose type.

N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine (NAG) is a monosaccharide derivative of glucose. It is released by the action of O-GlcNAcase, in mammalian systems from proteins that have been post-translationally modified with O-GlcNAc.

D-(+)-Xylose (Wood sugar) is an aldopentose - a monosaccharide containing five carbon atoms and an aldehyde functional group. It has chemical formula C5H10O5 and is 40% as sweet as sucrose. Xylose is also found in mucopolysaccharides of connective tissue and sometimes in the urine. Xylose is the first sugar added to serine or threonine residues during proteoglycan type O-glycosylation. Therefore xylose is involved in the biosythetic pathways of most anionic polysaccharides such as heparan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate. In medicine, xylose is used to test for malabsorption by administering a xylose solution to the patient after fasting. If xylose is detected in the blood and or urine within the next few hours, it has been absorbed by the intestines. Xylose is said to be one of eight sugars which are essential for human nutrition, the others being galactose, glucose, mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, fucose, and sialic acid. . Xylose in the urine is a biomarker for the consumption of apples and other fruits.

(3S,4R,5S)-1,3,4,5,6-Pentahydroxyhexan-2-one (L(-)-Sorbopyranose) is a ketose monosaccharide.

L-Xylose (L-(-)-Xylose), a levo-isomer of Xylose, is classified as an aldopentose-type monosaccharide.

D-Xylose ((2S,3R,4S,5R)-oxane-2,3,4,5-tetrol) is a monosaccharide widely found in yeast and involved in the metabolism of the organism.

Addition of the Rhamnose (6-Deoxy-L-mannose)-rich polysaccharide, RROP-1, to normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs) and human endothelial cells produced a dose-dependent stimulation of the calcium-signaling pathway, inducing fast and transient increases in Ca2 influx and intracellular free Ca2 level.

D-Glucose (Glucopyranose) is a monosaccharide, a natural glucose, a sweetener. D-Glucose is the main functional substance of living organisms, and is used as a nutrient in medicine, with diuretic, detoxification and cardiotonic effects.

Cyclic N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine is a monosaccharide used as a precursor in the chemical or enzymatic synthesis of neuraminic acid found in glycolipids and glycoproteins.N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine is a specific substrate for the synthesis of n -acetylneuraminic acid, an essential precursor for bacterial podoplanar polysialic acid (PA).N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine is used in the synthesis of sialic acid. mannosamine is used in the synthesis of sialic acid. It is also an intermediate in the synthesis of many carbohydrate-derived bioactive compound families and drug candidates.N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine is used in the study of cognitive disorders and aging.

Fructose (Fructopyranose) is a simple ketonic monosaccharide extracted from Honey,fruits,berries,melon.

D-Mannopyranose is a hexose or fermentable monosaccharide and isomer of glucose from manna, the ash Fraxinus ornus and related plants.

Rhamnose monohydrate (L-(+)-Rhamnose Monohydrate) is a naturally-occurring deoxy sugar that is found primarily in plants and some bacteria.

D-Allose (β-D-Allopyranose) is a rare naturally occurring monosaccharide known to exert anti-proliferative effects on cancer cells. The effects of D-Allose on the cellular membranes of hormone-refractory prostate cancer cell line (DU145), hormone-sensitive prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP), and normal prostate epithelial cells (PrEC) were studied at the molecular level by phospholipid profiling using a shotgun lipidomic method.

Alpha-D-glucose hydrate is a monosaccharide and the most common form of glucose, playing a vital role in energy metabolism as the primary energy source for many cells. It is also a building block of larger carbohydrates such as starch and glycogen. The α prefix refers to the orientation of the hydroxyl group attached to the first carbon atom. In solution, alpha-D-glucose exists as a hydrate, bound to water molecules.
