Recent Advances Regarding the Physiological Functions and Biosynthesis of D-Allulose
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 D-Allulose, a generally regarded as safe (GRAS) sugar, is rare in nature. It is among the most promising sweeteners for future use due to its low caloric content, sucrose-like taste, and unique functions.

Novel Methods towards Rare Sugars Based on Site-Selective Chemistry [PDF]
, 2021 Sugars play important roles in the functions of our bodies. Besides common sugars like glucose and lactose, other rare sugars are found in bacteria and other organisms. These rare sugars can have important biological activities, such as anti-cancer, anti-

Effect of Rare Sugars on Physiology of Yeast [PDF]
Effect of Rare Sugars on Physiology of Yeast, 2009 Effect of rare sugars on physiology of yeast Candida tropicalis pK233 was studied. Of rare sugars tested, L-sorbose exerted a significant effect. L-Sorbose inhibited growth strongly and brought about pseudhyphal growth in the absence of D-glucose. This effect was not shown in the presence of D-glucose.

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 Abstract We introduce rare sugars including their derivatives and supramolecular rare sugars, that have been actively researched at Kagawa University, Japan. Although the rare sugars are special sugars which hardly exist in nature, we has succeeded in mass synthesis of the rare sugars by utilizing biological enzyme isomerization reaction.

A General Strategy for the Synthesis of Rare Sugars via Ru(II)-catalyzed and Boron-mediated Selective Epimerization of 1,2-trans-diols to 1,2-cis-diols [PDF]
, 2021 Human glycans are primarily composed of nine common sugar building blocks. On the other hand, several hundred monosaccharides have been discovered in bacteria and most of them are not readily available.

Sources of total, non-milk extrinsic, and intrinsic and milk sugars in the diets of older adults living in sheltered accommodation [PDF]
, 2008 The WHO recommends limiting non-milk extrinsic sugars (NMES) consumption to ≤ 10 % energy to reduce the risk of unhealthy weight gain and dental caries, and to restrict frequency of intake to ≤ 4 times/d to reduce risk of dental caries.

Investigation of the Hydration Behavior of Different Sugars by Time Domain-NMR
Foods, 2022 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 ...
