MedKoo Cat#: 146297 | Name: Melibiose

Description:

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

Melibiose is a disaccharide composed of galactose and glucose linked by an α-1,6-glycosidic bond. It is formed during the enzymatic hydrolysis of raffinose by the enzyme invertase. Melibiose is used in microbiological media to study carbohydrate metabolism and to differentiate microbial species based on their ability to ferment it. Its digestion in organisms capable of utilizing it involves the enzyme α-galactosidase, which breaks the glycosidic bond to release the monosaccharides.
