KTcos® Trehalose
KTcos® Trehalose, also known as α,α-trehalose, is a non-reducing disaccharide formed by the dehydration condensation between the hydroxyl group of the anomeric carbon (C1) of two molecules of D-glucose. It exists in various forms, including α,α-trehalose, α,β-trehalose, and β,β-trehalose. Naturally occurring in fungi, algae, dry yeast, and ergot, trehalose can also be synthetically produced.
This unique sugar has the ability to preserve biological activity by stabilizing cell membranes and proteins. It ensures that organisms retain moisture and protect against damage from dehydration, high osmotic pressure, or freezing. As a protective agent, KTcos® Trehalose helps maintain the integrity of cells by preventing nutrient loss and cell damage under extreme conditions.
Additionally, KTcos® Trehalose has applications in stabilizing bioactive substances such as enzymes, viruses, vaccines, antibodies, proteins, and nucleic acids, making it valuable in industries like food, healthcare, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, molecular biology, and agriculture.
