Applications & Uses
Uses
L-Arabitol, a rare sugar alcohol, is being studied as a food additive that reduces fat deposits in the intestines. L-Arabitol is used as an inducer of xylanase expression in Hypocrea jecorina (Trichoderma reesei). L-Arabitol is used to identify, differentiate and characterize L-arabitol dehydrogenase(s).
General Description
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.L-Arabinitol is formed as a by-product of L-arabinose during the xylitol production in corn cob hydrolysates.
