Galactonic acid

Catalog No. A73379

main product photo
Galactonic acid is an endogenous metabolite and a sugar acid resulting from the metabolic breakdown of galactose. It is formed through the action of galactose dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the conversion of galactose to galactonolactone, subsequently leading to the formation of galactonic acid. This compound serves as a valuable research tool for studies involving carbohydrate metabolism and the biochemical pathways associated with galactose and its derivatives.
