Starch
soluble GR for analysis ISO

D-(+)-Glucose
anhydrous for biochemistry Reag. Ph Eur

IPTG, Dioxane-Free, High Purity
CAS 367-93-1 is used in the stimulation of β-galactosidase in cellular systems in which dioxane would disrupt normal cell function.

Sucrose

Sorbitol
A sugar alcohol produced by reduction of glucose.

Carboxymethylcellulose, Sodium Salt, Low Viscosity
Substrate for cellulase. Low viscosity (2%, H2O, 25°C): 25 - 75 mPas.

Heparin, Sodium Salt, Porcine Intestinal Mucosa

β-Glucan, Saccharomyces cerevisiae
A major structural element of the yeast cell wall having a β1,3-glucan linear structure with a small number of β1,6-glucan branches. Has been shown to induce an oxidative burst response from NR8383 cells.

Sucrose
Molecular Biology Grade

UDP-α-D-Galactose, Disodium Salt
A donor substrate for galactosyltransferases used in the biosynthesis of galactose-containing oligosaccharides. Decreased red blood cell levels of UDP-Gal are found in patients with maple syrup urine disease or phenylketonuria.

UDP-α-D-Glucose, Disodium Salt
Donor substrate for glucosyltransferases. A key intermediate in the biosynthesis of glycogen.

CMP-Sialic Acid, Disodium Salt
CMP-sialic acid is the activated form of sialic acid that is required for the biosynthesis of sialic acid-containing complex carbohydrates.

Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Salt, Streptococcus pyrogenes
Natural high-viscosity mucopolysaccharide with alternating β1,3-glucuronidic and β1,4-glucosaminidic bonds. Principal glycosaminoglycan in connective tissue fluids.

N-Glycolylneuraminic Acid
Formed by the action of CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase. Humans are devoid of this compound due to a mutation in the human CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase gene that occurred after the Homo-Pan divergence.

2-Deoxy-D-glucose
Non-metabolizable derivative of glucose that can be carried by the glucose carrier in human erythrocytes. An indirect inhibitor of hexokinase. Reported to reduce the incidence of doxorubicin-induced apoptosis.

L(+)Arabinose
A pectin sugar widely distributed in plants, usually in the form of complex polysaccharides.

D-(+)-Glucose monohydrate
for biochemistry

Maltose monohydrate
for biochemistry

Carboxymethylcellulose, Sodium Salt, High Viscosity
Substrate for cellulase. High viscosity (2%, H2O, 25°C): 800 - 3100 mPas.
