Explore Carbohydrates

Collection: Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates — gathers mono-, oligo-, and polysaccharides along with their derivatives, including modified cellulose, chitin, and natural glycosides, as basic materials for glyco-material research. This category covers carbohydrates with various levels of structural complexity for synthesis and analysis needs.

Carbohydrates are used by biochemistry and materials researchers to synthesize cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethyl cellulose, study the structure and function of polysaccharides such as chitin and amylopectin, and use natural glycosides as reference compounds in natural product research. Materials in this category also support the development of glyco-material-based applications in the food, cosmetics, and functional materials fields.

Example products in this collection: TCI D0059 533-67-5 2-Deoxy-D-ribose, TCI C0045 9004-32-4 Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium Salt (n=approx. 500), TCI A0443 29883-15-6 Amygdalin, TCI C0056 528-50-7 D-(+)-Cellobiose, TCI A0456 9037-22-3 Amylopectin (Amylose free), from Waxy Corn, TCI C0072 1398-61-4 Chitin, TCI I0862 489-32-7 Icariin, TCI C0074 15879-93-3 alpha-Chloralose (contains beta-isomer).

Pay attention to the degree of polymerization or molecular weight, for example the n value of modified cellulose, anomeric isomer purity, and water content that affects the stability of hygroscopic carbohydrates. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
