Description

D-(+)-Trehalose Dihydrate ≥98%, White Powder

• It is a natural alpha-linked non –reducing disaccharide formed by an α,α-1,1-glucoside bond between two α-glucose units which yields 2 moles of D-glucose upon acid hydrolysis.
• Trehalose has also been used in several biopharmaceutical monoclonal antibody formulations.
• It is also used as a protein-stabilizing agent in research.
• Use as a cryoprotectant in a variety of cell freezing media.
• Trehalose does not reduce Fehling's solution; it is fermented by yeast; it is not split by alpha-glucosidase; acid hydrolysis gives 2 mols D-glucose.
