Description

Used as a cryoprotectant in a variety of cell freezing media. D-(+)-Trehalose Dihydrate, MP Biomedicals is a non-reducing sugar formed from two glucose units joined by a 1-1 alpha bond. It is thought to provide plants and animals with the ability to withs

Trehalose is a natural alpha-linked, non-reducing disaccharide formed by an α,α-1,1-glucoside bond between two α-glucose units, which yields 2 moles of D-glucose upon acid hydrolysis.

• Has 90% of the calorific content of sucrose
• Inhibits polyglutamine-mediated protein aggregation both in vivo and in vitro
• Oral administration of trehalose has been shown to effectively extend lifespan in a murine Huntington disease model
• Known to accumulate in osmotically-stressed cultured bacterial cells
• Protects against the adverse effects of dehydration
