Application

Erlose, a triose sugar (trisaccharide), is used in studies on dietary preference and utilization of triose sugars from aphid honeydew by various insects, such as honey bees and ants. Erlose may be used as a reference compound in assays that analyze the sugars of foods such as royal jelly and honey.

Caution

moisture sensitive

The purification and characterisation of the alpha-glucosidase from the marine mollusc Aplysia fasciata are reported. Overall substrate specificity of the pure enzyme for both hydrolytic and transglycosylation reactions was studied. Remarkable characteristics of this enzyme are indicated by the results

The saccharide profiles of 5 different botanical species in 86 Italian honey samples were investigated by ¹H and ¹H-¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Nineteen saccharides were identified in the aqueous extracts, namely, fructose, glucose, gentiobiose, isomaltose, kojibiose, maltose, maltulose, melibiose, nigerose, palatinose

Little is known about the structure and function of oligosaccharides in cyanobacteria. In this study, a new class of saccharides from Nostoc was identified by MS and NMR techniques, consisting of alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)]n-beta-D-fructofuranosides ranging from the trisaccharide (n = 1) to
