Sophorose
Biochemical Assay Reagent
Sophorose is a disaccharide that serves as a key component of microbial glycolipids, specifically those produced by yeast known as sophorolipids. This compound functions as an effective biosurfactant due to its hydrophobic properties and displays a range of biological activities including antibacterial, antifungal, spermicidal, virucidal, and anticancer effects. Additionally, sophorose has been recognized for its ability to induce cellulase gene expression in fermentation studies involving Trichoderma reesei, making it valuable for biochemical assays and related research applications.
