Odour | Odourless |
A white, crystalline solid consisting of D-mannitol and a small quantity of sorbitol. It is odorless and has a sweet taste. It is soluble in water, very slightly soluble in alcohol, and practically insoluble in most other common organic solvents. It is prepared commercially by catalytic reduction of glucose. Mannitol occurs in small amounts in a variety of foods such as
olives, beets, and celery, and in the exudate of certain trees.
D-Mannitol is widespread in plants and plant exudates; obtained from manna and seaweeds. D-Mannitol is used in the food industry as anticaking and free-flow agent, flavo ring agent, lubricant and release agent, stabilizer and thickener and nutritive sweetener.
The Preparation Techniques Of D-Mannose Powder
D-Mannose Powder also can be made of D-mannitol (kelp iodine industrial by- product) in the presence of ferrous ion,
with hydrogen peroxide combined. Also can be made of d- glucose difference to the isomerization, or by D-arbrinose
growth methods such as the preparation of carbon chain.
The Physical-chemical Property Of Powder
D-Mannose Powder as white crystals or crystalline powder, with a bitter sweet.Soluble in water,slightly soluble in ethanol.
D-Mannose Powder can be fermented by yeast.
The Metabolism About D-Mannose Powder
D-Mannose Powder in not very good in the human body metabolism.So, after oral mannose into the sugar metabolism
process is not obvious, even from the outside into the G-mannose, will be found by the in body organ.
The physiological effects D-Mannose Powder
1) Regulation of immune system
2) There are 4 types of macrophages can capture antigen receptors, are components of D-mannose Powder
3) Increased wound healing
4) Anti inflammation effect
5) Inhibit malignant cell growth and metastasis, and to increase the survival rate of benign cells.
6) Certain bacterial infections, such as urinary tract infections, can be avoided
