Products Description L-arabinose is a kind of aldopentoses, it's a low-calurie sweetener, it inhibits the sucrase activity and prevents increasing of blood glucose, therefore, it can prevent fat accumulation and against high blood glucose disease. L-arabinose is more common than D-arabinose in nature, it can be used as pharmaceutical intermediate, preparing culture medium and be used for synthesis in the flavour industry. L Arabinose is a monosaccharide containing 5 carbon atoms. L-Arabinose is a white crystalline powder with a sweetness about 50% of that of sugar. L Arabinose appears to selectively inhibit the sucrase activity in the small intestine which can control the increase of blood sugar caused by intake of sugar. L-arabinose, as a low calorie sweetener, widely exists in the skin of fruits and coarse cereals. Because it can inhibit the activity of sucrase in human intestinal tract, it has the effect of inhibiting sucrose absorption. In addition, L-arabinose can also inhibit the accumulation of body fat, so it can be used to prevent obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and other diseases. the Ministry of health of China officially approved L-arabinose as a new resource food in 2008, confirming its important position in the field of functional sugar. BASIC ANALYSIS Test Result Appearance White needle-shaped crystals, no peculiar smell, easily soluble in water, no impurities visible in normal vision. Content 99.0-101.0% Moisture ≤0.5% Sulfate Ash ≤0.1% Specific rotation +102.0-+105.0° Melting point 154.0-160.0% Chloride ≤0.005% Sulfate ≤0.005% Heavy metals ≤5mg/kg As ≤0.5mg/kg Pb ≤0.5mg/kg Total number of colonies ≤100CFU/g Coliform ≤3MPN/g Bacterium total ≤100CFU/g Function Arabinose can take metabolic role to sucrose in the intestines, and can stop the conversion. Arabinose has very good application future to reduce weight and control diabetes. Arabinose, as a low calorie sweetener. The most representative feature of L-Arabinose is that it can selectively affect the sucrose enzyme which influences the sucrose digestion indisaccharide-hydrolysing enzymes in small intestine, and so Arabinose can well stop the absorption of sucrose in body. Arabinose is a non-calorie natural compound sweetener, and it is good to anti-obesity, prevention & cure. Application L-arabinose is commonly used in beverages and drinks, dairy products, chocolates, candies, baked pastries, health oral liquids, health wines, enzymes and other foods. The principle of inhibiting sucrose absorption is mainly used to control blood sugar under daily eating habits. As sugar substitute raw material or table sugar substitute, it can be directly compatible with sucrose.
