Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide made of two glucose sugars, found in animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi. Its main function is to protect organisms from extreme temperatures and desiccation. Trehalose is used in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries due to its stability, sweetness, and water-holding capacity. It is also being researched for its potential in […]
Trehalose is a disaccharide made up of two glucose sugars, with an unusual alpha bond that makes it stable at high temperatures and acidic conditions. It acts as an antioxidant and is found in animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi. Trehalose is known for protecting organisms from extreme temperatures and desiccation, and its water-holding capacity allows […]
