L-arabinose is an aldopentose which is more common than D-arabinose in nature. L-arabinose is a Zero-Calorie sweetener and L-arabinose can inhibite the Sucrase, so that the Sucrose can not be broke up into Fructose and Glucose. Therefore, it can prevent fat accumulation and protect against diabetes.
- L-arabinose can be used as a sucrose enzyme inhibitor to lower the Glycaemic Index(GI) of sucrose containing products
- L-arabinose can be used in developing antiviral agents such as nucleoside analogues
- L-arabinose can be used in various foods (except foods for infants or young children)
- L-arabinose can be used as raw material for the synthesis of fine chemicals as well as pharmaceutical intermediate
- L-arabinose can be used in preparing bacterial medium in biological industry
- L-arabinose can be used in the synthesis of flavours
