Description

Mannosucrose is a specialized carbohydrate derivative, a disaccharide composed of mannose and sucrose units. This compound is valued for its unique structural properties, which make it a versatile intermediate and functional ingredient in advanced biochemical research and product development. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers and researchers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and fine chemical sectors for applications in glycobiology, diagnostics, and as a precursor for synthesizing more complex glycoconjugates.

Application

• Glycobiology Research: Used as a key substrate or standard in enzymatic studies, glycosylation research, and carbohydrate metabolism investigations.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a building block for the synthesis of novel glycoconjugate drugs, prodrugs, and targeted therapeutic agents.
• Diagnostic Reagent Development: Employed in the formulation of assay kits and biosensors for detecting specific enzymes or carbohydrate-binding proteins.
• Biochemical Standards: Acts as a high-purity reference standard for analytical methods such as HPLC, LC-MS, and NMR in quality control laboratories.
• Enzyme Substrate: Functions as a specific substrate for studying the activity of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases.
• Nutritional & Cosmetic Research: Investigated for potential prebiotic properties or as a moisturizing agent in advanced cosmetic formulations.

Quality Control

Our Mannosucrose is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and specific impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed in a low-humidity environment to prevent product degradation and clumping.
