Rare sugars: recent advances and their potential role in sustainable crop protection [PDF]
Rare sugars are monosaccharides with a limited availability in the nature and almost unknown biological functions. The use of industrial enzymatic and microbial processes greatly reduced their production costs, making research on these molecules more ...

Metabolic Profiling of Rat Kidney Tissue Following Administration of D-Allulose. [PDF]
D-Allulose (D-psicose) is a rare sugar and a C-3 epimer of D-fructose. D-Allulose has been reported to have several health benefits via its alteration of both glucose and lipid metabolism. It was previously reported that D-allulose alters the hepatic metabolomic profile.

Effects of monosaccharides including rare sugars on proliferation of Entamoeba histolytica trophozoites in vitro [PDF]
Entamoeba histolytica is a parasitic protozoan with roles in pathogenicity of intestinal amoebiasis. E. histolytica trophozoites lack functional mitochondria and their energy production depends mostly on glycolysis.

EFFECT OF D-ALLULOSE ON INSULIN RESISTANCE AND ENDURANCE ABILITY: IS D-ALLULOSE AN EXERCISE MIMETIC? [PDF]
Abstract 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.

Investigation of the Hydration Behavior of Different Sugars by Time Domain-NMR [PDF]
The hydration behavior of sugars varies from each other and examining the underlying mechanism is challenging. In this study, the hydration behavior of glucose, fructose, allulose (aka rare sugar), and sucrose have been explored using different Time ...

Conversion of xylan by recyclable spores of Bacillus subtilis displaying thermophilic enzymes [PDF]
Background: The Bacillus subtilis spore has long been used to display antigens and enzymes. Spore display can be accomplished by a recombinant and a non-recombinant approach, with the latter proved more efficient than the recombinant one.
