D--1-13C(D-XYLOSE-1-13C) - Introduction
D-[1-13C]Xylose(D-[1-13C]Xylose) is a D-Xylose containing the 13C isotope. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
1. Nature:
D-[1-13C]Xylose is a colorless solid with the molecular formula C5H10O5. Its structure is the same as that of naturally occurring D-Xylose, except that one of the carbon atoms is replaced by a 13C isotope. It has a sweet taste and is soluble in water and alcoholic solvents.
2. Use:
D-[1-13C]Xylose is mainly used for biochemical experiments and isotope tracing research. Its 13C-isotope label makes it useful in metabolic pathway studies, carbon cycle analysis, and other biochemical studies to track its transformation and metabolism in biological systems.
3. Preparation method:
The preparation of D-[1-13C]Xylose is usually obtained by fermentation or chemical conversion using a substrate with a 13C label, such as 13C-glucose or 13C-Xylose. The specific preparation method will vary according to the experimental requirements and equipment conditions.
4. Safety Information:
D-[1-13C]Xylose is considered to be relatively harmless in theory and practical application, and has no direct harm to human health. However, as with any chemical substance, standard chemical laboratory practices should be followed and appropriate personal protective measures such as wearing gloves and protective glasses should be used. During storage and handling, contact with harmful substances such as oxidants and strong acids should be avoided. Waste in the laboratory should be disposed of in accordance with local chemical waste disposal regulations.
