MedKoo Cat#: 145920 | Name: Rhamnitol

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Rhamnitol is a sugar alcohol derived from rhamnose, a naturally occurring monosaccharide. It is used primarily as a low-calorie sweetener in food and beverage products, offering a mild sweetness without significant impact on blood sugar levels. Rhamnitol works by inhibiting the enzymatic breakdown of carbohydrates, resulting in slower absorption in the body. Its applications extend to the pharmaceutical industry, where it is sometimes used as an excipient in drug formulations due to its stability and ability to improve the texture of tablets.
