l-arabinose is a naturally occurring pentose with a sweet taste and is widely distributed
as a component of complex non-starch polysaccharides in plant cell walls and plant gums.
as a low-calorie sugar-substituting sweetener, the relative sweetness of
l-arabinose equals to half of the sucrose’s. some research suggested that
l-arabinose selectively inhibit sucrose absorption and then inhibit the increase of blood sugar.
furthermore, l-arabinose is an intermediate in flavor industry for producing flavors, the derivates of
l-arabinose can be used in the development of antiviral agents such as nucleoside.
as an open and dynamic enterprise, yixin could provide better and custom support to clients for its clear and simple organization and decision chain.
benefits
sugar-substituting sweetener
l-arabinose has a nice, sweet taste that does not linger in the mouth and has no aftertaste. no-calorie sweeter, it’s not metabolized in humans
no side-effects were reported
inhibiting sucrose absorption
l-arabinose selectively inhibits the sucrase enzyme in the small-intestine in an uncompetitive manner . the sucrase enzyme normally splits the sucrose molecule into one d-glucose and one d-fructose molecule. during the period that the sucrase enzyme is inhibited by l-arabinose, the splitting of sucrose is delayed or even prevented, and the release of d-glucose and d-fructose to the blood is delayed, for this reason the increase of blood sugar is inhibited.
