Description

6α-Mannobiose Octaacetate is a high-purity, fully acetylated derivative of the disaccharide mannobiose. This compound serves as a critical intermediate and reference standard in carbohydrate chemistry research and pharmaceutical development. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and industrial R&D departments focused on glycoscience, including the synthesis of complex oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates.

Application

• Carbohydrate Chemistry Research: A key building block and protected intermediate for the chemical and enzymatic synthesis of complex oligosaccharides and glycans.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Used as a reference standard and starting material in the research of glycoprotein-based therapeutics and vaccine adjuvants.
• Enzymology Studies: Serves as a specific substrate for studying the activity and inhibition of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases.
• Analytical Standard: Employed in HPLC, LC-MS, and NMR for method development, calibration, and identification of carbohydrate structures.
• Glycobiology Tool: Utilized in probing carbohydrate-protein interactions and cell surface recognition processes.
• Specialty Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a precursor for the production of labeled (e.g., fluorophore-tagged) carbohydrate probes and other advanced biochemical tools.

Quality Control

Our 6α-Mannobiose Octaacetate is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure high chemical purity and batch-to-batch consistency. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization, including HPLC for purity assessment and NMR for structural confirmation. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing specifications for identity, purity, and related substances is supplied with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccant or inert atmosphere.
