Novel linear carbohydrate-derived [m,n]-polyurethanes are successfully prepared using d-mannitol as renewable and low cost starting material. The key comonomer, 1,6-di-O-phenylcarbonyl-2,3,4,5-tetra-O-methyl-d-mannitol is ...

Mannitol is a natural low-calorie sugar alcohol produced by certain (micro)organisms applicable in foods for diabetics due to its zero glycemic index. In this work, we evaluated mannitol production and yield by the fruit ...

This work describes an investigation of the major sugar composition of sisal leaf waste liquids. The fractionation of an ethanol extract from the liquid residue of Agave sisalana by open chromatography column packed with ...

Several plants, fungi, algae, and certain bacteria produce mannitol, a polyol derived from fructose. Mannitol has multiple industrial applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and medical industries, being mainly used as ...

We report the draft genome sequence of Fructobacillus tropaeoli CRL 2034, a strain isolated from ripe fig in Tucumán province, Argentina. The interest in studying the genome of this fructophilic lactic acid bacterium strain ...

Lactobacillus mucosae CRL573, isolated from child fecal samples, efficiently converts fructose and/or sucrose into the lowcalorie sugar mannitol when cultured in modified MRS medium at pH 5.0. Also, the strain is capable ...
