3-O-α-D-Galactopyranosyl-D-myo-inositol - Risk and Safety
3-O-α-D-Galactopyranosyl-D-myo-inositol - Introduction
Galactinol Hydrate is an organic compound with the chemical formula C12H26O11 · xH2O. It is a condensation product of inositol and galactose, where x represents the number of hydrates and can be any integer. Galactoside Hydrate is a white or light yellow crystalline powder with a sweet taste.
Galactosyl inositol hydrate is an important low-molecular-weight substance that exists widely in living organisms and has a variety of uses. First of all, it plays a protective role in plants, which can help plants resist stress factors such as drought, high temperature and salt stress. Secondly, galactoside hydrate is used as a natural sweetener in the food industry and can be used in foods and beverages as an alternative sweetener to sugar. In addition, inositol galactoside hydrate is also used in some health products and cosmetics, with moisturizing and antioxidant effects.
The preparation methods of galactoside hydrate are varied, mainly by chemical synthesis or extraction from natural plants. The main method of chemical synthesis is the condensation reaction of inositol and galactose. The inositol galactoside hydrate extracted from natural plants mainly comes from some plants rich in inositol galactoside hydrate, such as red bean, rice bran and sugar beet.
Regarding safety information, inositol galactoside hydrate is considered a safe compound and generally does not cause serious side effects. However, for individual groups (such as people with allergies), it may cause an allergic reaction. During use, you should follow the appropriate dosage and method of use, and pay attention to personal allergy history and Consultation recommendations before use to ensure safe use.
