A rare sugar xylitol. Part I: the biochemistry and biosynthesis of xylitol

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2007
The rare sugar xylitol is a five-carbon polyol (pentitol) that has beneficial health effects. Xylitol has global markets and, therefore, it represents an alternative to current dominant sweeteners. The research on microbial reduction of D-xylose to xylitol has been focused on metabolically engineered Saccharomycess cerevisiae and Candida strains.

THE EFFECT OF DIETARY XYLITOL ON THE ABILITY OF RAT CAECAL FLORA TO METABOLISE XYLITOL

Australian Journal of Experimental Biology and Medical Science, 1980
SummaryThe effect of dietary xylitol on the ability of the rat caecal flora to metabolise xylitol was investigated. Xylitol metabolism in micro‐organisms has generally been assessed in terms of pH change and acid production which are often insensitive in demonstrating low rates of substrate utilisation.

Absorption of Xylitol

1969
The diet of diabetic patients should not contain sugars with insulin- dependent utilization and rapid absorption. For this reason, the diabetic patient is, in general, not allowed to take glucose, sucrose or maltose. Up to now, we used fructose or the polyol sorbitol as sugar substitutes.

ChemInform Abstract: XYLITOL AND ITS DERIVATIVES

Chemischer Informationsdienst, 1976
The literature data on the pentahydric alcohol xylitol are reviewed. The methods for the preparation of xylitol, its ethers, esters, nitrogen-, halogen-, and sulphur-containing derivatives, acetals, ketals, anhydroxylitols, and their various derivatives are examined and the spectroscopic methods for demonstrating the structures of certain xylitol ...

Xylitol and Oral Health

1979
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses that the health of the oral cavity is an inseparable part of the general health of man. Physicians, dieticians, and nutritionists should take a serious look at the effects of improper nutrition on oral tissues, viz, the teeth, periodontal tissues, oral mucosa, salivary glands, and many others, because in all ...

Metabolism of xylitol in dental plaque

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1985
Abstract – It has been reported previously that xylitol added to glucose used to challenge dental plaque in vivo caused a reduced acid formation. The aim of the present study was to approach the mechanism by which xylitol may affect glucose catabolism in plaque bacteria.

Effect of Sorbitol, Xylitol, and Xylitol/Sorbitol Chewing Gums on Dental Plaque

Caries Research, 1989
The effect of sorbitol (SOR), xylitol (XYL), and the mixture XYL/SOR in chewing gums on dental plaque was studied in three groups of 7 adults (mean age 22.5 years). A fourth group of habitual users of sucrose-containing gums was used as a control. The study involved a 2-week, no-gum period followed by the use of the polyol gums for 2 weeks (10 gums/day

Intracellular xylitol‐phosphate hydrolysis and efflux of xylitol in Streptococcus sobrinus

Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 1991
The parental strain Streptococcus sobrinus (Streptococcus mutans ATCC 27352), which is known to transport, phosphorylate and accumulate xylitol intracellularly as nonmetabolizable xylitol‐phosphate (xylitol‐sensitive (Xs) strain) and its xylitol‐resistant (XR) spontaneous mutant were used to further investigate the inhibitory action of xylitol on oral ...

Risks of xylitol poisoning in dogs

Veterinary Record, 2019
We are writing to raise awareness of xylitol toxicosis in dogs. Xylitol exists naturally in low concentrations in fruit and vegetables and is a normal intermediary in glucose metabolism. For people, it is used as a sweetener in many products, particularly sugar-free chewing gums and some chewable medications, where it will be listed as an excipient ...
