Improving L-arabinose utilization of pentose fermenting
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2011 Background Hydrolysates of plant biomass used for the production of lignocellulosic biofuels typically contain sugar mixtures consisting mainly of D-glucose and D-xylose, and minor amounts of L-arabinose.

L-Arabinose Transport and Metabolism in Salmonella Influences Biofilm Formation [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 L-arabinose inducible promoters are commonly used in gene expression analysis. However, nutrient source and availability also play a role in biofilm formation; therefore, L-arabinose metabolism could impact biofilm development.

Efficacy of L-Arabinose in Lowering Glycemic and Insulinemic Responses: The Modifying Effect of Starch and Fat [PDF]
Foods, 2022 L-arabinose is a bio-active compound derived from the side-streams of plant food processing. L-arabinose lowers glycemic and insulinemic responses when added to simple water-based sugary liquids.

L-arabinose and D-xylose: sweet pentoses that may reduce postprandial glucose and insulin responses [PDF]
Food & Nutrition Research, 2021 Background: Diets inducing high fluctuations in plasma glucose levels are linked to type 2 diabetes. L-arabinose and D-xylose have been hypothesized to inhibit intestinal sucrase activity, delay sucrose digestion, and reduce glycaemic and insulinaemic ...
