Description
D(-)-Mannitol is a sugar alcohol offered at min. 97 % purity in the CELLPURE® grade, identified by CAS number 69-65-8 and empirical formula C₆H₁₄O₆. With a molar mass of 182,18 g/mol, it provides a well-defined polyol for cell-culture media, osmotic adjustment, and biochemical buffer systems. The product is Mannitol is frequently applied where a non-reducing polyhydroxy compound is preferred for osmolarity control, cryoprotection studies, or carbohydrate-related analytical work. Its documented assay and identity support consistent performance across research, process development, and quality-control applications. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the reagent is listed with EG nr. 200-711-8 and aligns with standard laboratory handling of salts, sugars, and buffers. Clear specification of purity, formula, and pack size helps laboratories select the correct grade for cell-culture and biochemical protocols that depend on reliable mannitol input.

Questions about D(-)-Mannitol, min. 97 %, CELLPURE®, 100 g, plastic
What is this article?
D(-)-Mannitol, min. 97 %, CELLPURE®, 100 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 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.
