Hyperpolarized Dihydroxyacetone Is a Sensitive Probe of Hepatic Gluconeogenic State
Type II diabetes and pre-diabetes are widely prevalent among adults. Elevated serum glucose levels are commonly treated by targeting hepatic gluconeogenesis for downregulation. However, direct measurement of hepatic gluconeogenic capacity is accomplished

Elevated hemoglobin glycation index identify non-diabetic individuals at increased risk of kidney dysfunction [PDF]
Hemoglobin glycation index (HGI), calculated as the difference between the observed value of HbA1 and the predicted HbA1c based on plasma glucose concentration, is a measure of the individual tendency toward non-enzymatic hemoglobin glycation which has ...

PROPERTY-PROPERTY RELATIONSHIPS FOR MONOSACCHARIDES
The enormous diversity and complexity of polysaccharides resides in the large number of anomeric positions, diversity in the size of the rings as well as of the large number of the linkage positions of the monosaccharides.

Tandem catalysis for the production of alkyl lactates from ketohexoses at moderate temperatures [PDF]
Retro-aldol reactions have been implicated as the limiting steps in catalytic routes to convert biomass-derived hexoses and pentoses into valuable C_2, C_3, and C_4 products such as glycolic acid, lactic acid, 2-hydroxy-3-butenoic acid, 2,4 ...

Tin-containing zeolites are highly active catalysts for the isomerization of glucose in water [PDF]
The isomerization of glucose into fructose is a large-scale reaction for the production of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS; reaction performed by enzyme catalysts) and recently is being considered as an intermediate step in the possible route of biomass ...
