D-(+)-Melibiose monohydrate, poudre blanche
D-(+)-Melibiose monohydrate
Melibiose is a reducing disaccharide formed by an alpha-1,6 linkage between galactose and glucose (D-Gal-α(1→6)-D-Glc). It can be formed by invertase mediated hydrolysis of raffinose, which produces melibiose and fructose. Melibiose can be broken down into its component saccharides, glucose and galactose, by the enzyme alpha-galactosidase.
Melibiose has been used in a study to improve the preparation of benzoylated ethyl 1-thioglycosides. It has also been used in a study to investigate the effect of water plasticization on the molecular mobility and crystallization tendency of amorphous disaccharides.
Soluble in water (10% w/v).
