Description
L-Galactose is a monosaccharide with CAS number 15572-79-9 and empirical formula C₆H₁₂O₆. It has a molar mass of 180,16 g/mol, a flash point of 202,2 °C and a boiling point of 527,1 °C. The defined molecular identity aids reproducible assays, comparative stereoisomer studies and exploratory synthetic routes involving rare sugars. From manufacturer Carl ROTH, the material fits analytical and life-science workflows that need a clearly specified L-galactose reagent for method development, reference preparations or small-scale biochemical experiments. The compact pack size is practical for method scouting, standard preparation and specialised fermentation or glycosylation studies without holding large stock. Researchers investigating sugar metabolism, enantiomer-selective pathways or carbohydrate-based substrates can integrate this product into routine laboratory protocols with confidence in its stated identity and physical data.

Questions about L-Galactose, 500 mg
What is this article?
L-Galactose, 500 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Pharmacopoeia reagents & excipients, in Lab chemicals.
A pharmacopoeia reagent or excipient is a substance that meets a published monograph: identity tests, impurity limits, and sometimes a performance test. The monograph, not the common name, is the specification. European and United States monographs are not automatically interchangeable. The texts are the European Pharmacopoeia and USP. The substance itself is on PubChem.
