Description
5-Thio-D-glucose is a thiosugar analogue of D-glucose with CAS number 20408-97-3 and empirical formula C₆H₁₂O₅S. The molar mass of 196,22 g/mol and the replacement of the ring oxygen by sulfur give a compact, well-defined structure that is of interest in carbohydrate chemistry and biochemical studies of sugar metabolism and enzyme recognition. A flash point of 234 °C is reported for the material. Research groups working on glycomimetics, inhibitor design or comparative studies of glucose derivatives can use the compound within standard laboratory workflows. Its documented molecular formula and CAS identity support clear specification in experimental protocols and inventory records for biochemical and organic-chemistry applications.
This article is part of Carbohydrates & sugars, in Biochemicals & reagents.

Questions about 5-Thio-D-glucose, 50 mg
What is this article?
5-Thio-D-glucose, 50 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Carbohydrates & sugars, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Life Science & Microbiology.
A carbohydrate reagent is a sugar or a derivative, specified by identity, anomer where it matters, and purity. Hydrate and anhydrous forms change the mass. A culture-grade sugar and an analytical standard of the same name are different bottles.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
