In Vitro Inhibition of Pathogens by Polyols: Optical Density-Based Screening and Implications for the Oral–Systemic Axis [PDF]
MicroorganismsPolyols are widely used as non-cariogenic sweeteners in foods and oral care products, yet their comparative activity against diverse oral microbes and their potential relevance to the oral–systemic axis remain incompletely defined.

Construction of hyperthermostable d-allulose 3-epimerase from Arthrobacter globiformis M30 using the sequence information from Arthrobacter psychrolactophilus. [PDF]
FEBS Open Biod‐Allulose can be produced from d‐fructose by d‐allulose 3‐epimerase. Based on sequence homology information, we successfully engineered thermostable mutants with the protein engineering method. By integrating positive mutations, we constructed an enzyme that exhibits hyperthermostability without a loss in the activity.

EFFECT OF D-ALLULOSE ON INSULIN RESISTANCE AND ENDURANCE ABILITY: IS D-ALLULOSE AN EXERCISE MIMETIC? [PDF]
Innov AgingAbstract D-Allulose, a rare sugar and C3-epimer of D-fructose has been proposed as a candidate for dietary restriction mimetics via inhibition of glycolysis. Anti-hyperglycemic and anti-obesity effects have been reported in rodents and human subjects.
