DETAILS

Description (English)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Allelic variation of the Tas1r3 gene affects behavioral taste responses to this sugar alcohol, suggesting that it is a T1R3 receptor ligand.1
Packaging
25, 100 g in poly bottle
Application
Meso-Erythritol is a precursor to the important tanning agent L-erythrulose which can be commercially generated by Gluconobacter oxydans DSM 7145. Meso-Erythritol, an aliphatic poly-alcohol, is used in the chemical analysis of the reativity of various radicals and radical anions.
Other Notes
Tandem Mass Spectrometry data independently generated by Scripps Center for Metabolomics is available to view or download in PDF. E7500.pdf Tested metabolites are featured on Scripps Center for Metabolomics METLIN Metabolite Database. To learn more, visit sigma.com/metlin.
