DETAILS

Description (English)
Biochem/physiol Actions
A sugar alcohol and slightly sweet tastant for human taste cells.
Packaging
10 mg in autosmp vl
Application
Dulcitol (Galactitol), a sugar alcohol derived through reduction of galatose, is studied to determine its role and mechanisms in pathologies such as cataract formation, hepatosplenomegaly and mental retardation. Galactitol is used as a substrate to identify, differentiate and characterize galactitol dehydrogenase(s).
