Description
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Acros Organics product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Acros Organics product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
General Description
• Sap-feeding insects such as ants and aphids produce melezitose to maintain osmotic balance
• Melezitose is produced by some plants as an insect attractant and acts as a metabolite
Applications
• Melezitose can be hydrolyzed to glucose and turanose through alpha-glucosidase activity and can be used for the study of enzyme activity
• Melezitose can be used to distinguish certain strains of bacteria; characterization of phenotype based on the presence or absence of certain sugars assists identification
