What is the L-arabinose?
L-arabinose is a kind of aldopentoses, it's a low-calurie sweetener, it inhibits the sucrase activity and prevents increasing of blood glucose, therefore, it can prevent fat accumulation and against high blood glucose disease. L-arabinose is more common than D-arabinose in nature, it can be used as pharmaceutical intermediate, preparing culture medium and be used for synthesis in the flavour industry.

Function:
1.L-arabinose can be used as a sucrose enzyme inhibitor to lower the Glycaemic Index(GI) of sucrose containing products.
2.L-arabinose can be used in developing antiviral agents such as nucleoside analogues
3.L-arabinose can be used in various foods (except foods for infants or young children)
4.L-arabinose can be used as raw material for the synthesis of fine chemicals as well as pharmaceutical intermediate.
Application:
1. Arabinose can take metabolic role to sucrose in the intestines, and can stop the conversion.
2.Arabinose has very good application future to reduce weight and control diabetes. .
3.Arabinose, as a low calorie sweetener, is approved to be used as a safe food additive by US FDA and Japan. The most representative feature of L-Arabinose is that it can selectively affect the sucrose enzyme which influences the sucrose digestion indisaccharide-hydrolysing enzymes in small intestine, and so Arabinose can well stop the absorption of sucrose in body.
4.Arabinose is a non-calorie natural compound sweetener, and it is good to anti-obesity, prevention & cure.
