DETAILS

Description (简体中文)

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.
Other Notes
A plasmolyticum that reversibly inhibits the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity of protoplasts at concentrations exceeding 50 mM1; Synchronization of Plasmodium falciparum erythrocytic stages in culture2; Increases fungal α-amylase thermostability3.
Tandem Mass Spectrometry data independently generated by Scripps Center for Metabolomics is available to view or download in PDF. 85529.pdf Tested metabolites are featured on Scripps Center for Metabolomics METLIN Metabolite Database. To learn more, visit sigma.com/metlin.
Application
Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol and slowly metabolized sweetener. Sorbitol, a bacterial culture supplement, is used for the preparation of selective plating media to culture Sorbitol-fermenting bacteria including strains of Escherichia coli and Yersinia enterocolitica.
