Description

D-Galactose, CAS # 59-23-4, is a right-handed conformation of a monosaccharide that is grouped as an aldohexose, and the molecule may be useful in study of aging, inflammation, and metabolic disorders. | CAS: 59-23-4 | C6H12O6

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Acros Organics product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Acros Organics product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

General description

  • Galactose is a monosaccharide and aldohexose found in most organisms
  • Galactose is an epimer of glucose and can be converted to glucose through the Leloir pathway
  • It also plays a role as a metabolite in mice and E. coli
  • Galactose is less stable than glucose and rapid conversion often occurs
  • Galactose may also be incorporated into glycoconjugates

Applications

  • Metabolism of galactose may be relevant to the study of aging, inflammation, and metabolic disorders
  • It is intended for a variety of applications from in vitro metabolic assays to HPLC
