Description
D(+)-Galactose is a monosaccharide of minimum 99 % purity offered in the CELLPURE® grade, with CAS number 59-23-4 and empirical formula C₆H₁₂O₆. The molar mass is 180,16 g/mol and the density is 1,5 g/cm³. This sugar is CELLPURE® designation indicates suitability for demanding life-science applications that rely on controlled carbohydrate quality. Laboratories use D(+)-galactose in selective media, enzyme assays and carbohydrate metabolism research. Identity is further documented by EG number 200-416-4, simplifying registration in reagent databases and quality systems. Specify this D(+)-galactose when a high-purity, cell-culture-oriented sugar with clear physicochemical data is needed for experimental consistency.
This article is part of Carbohydrates & sugars, in Biochemicals & reagents.

Questions about D(+)-Galactose, min. 99 %, CELLPURE®, 10 g, plastic
What is this article?
D(+)-Galactose, min. 99 %, CELLPURE®, 10 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Carbohydrates & sugars, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
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.
