Molecule Details
Biochem/physiol Actions
A sugar alcohol sweet tastant. Used in sweetness inhibition studies.
Other Notes
Used in discontinuous gradient centrifugation for purification of plant protoplasts1. Plasmolyticum that reversibly inhibits phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity of protoplasts at concentrations exceeding 50 mM2. Component of the liquid stationary phase in the GLC separation of nitroxylene and xylenol isomers3.
Application
D-Mannitol is used as an osmolyte and transport facilitator in a variety of biological in vivo and in vitro applications, such as improvement of blood-brain barrier transport and hyperosmolar therapy. D-Mannitol is used as a substrate to identify, differentiate and characterized enzymes such as mannitol dehydrogenase(s). D-Mannitol is used in identify mannitol metabolizing bacteria.
