Carbohydrates

D-(+)-Trehalose, Dihydrate, is a natural alpha-linked disaccharide that is also referred to as mycose or tremalose. It is found naturally in plants and microorganisms such as grasshoppers, shrimp, butterflies and bees. It is thought to have a use in the treatment for Huntington's and Parkinson's disease as it possibly corrects defects in autophagy seen in these diseases.

Dextran, 250,000, Powder is a complex branched glucan that is synthesized by certain lactic acid bacteria from sucrose. Commonly used in microsurgery to decrease the risk of vascular thrombosis, these agents are also used as effective osmotic agents and can treat hypovolemia. In the laboratory, Dextran is used to apply osmotic pressure to biological molecules and can, when applied with a fluorescent molecule, be used to create concentration gradients of diffusible molecules.

Starch, Soluble, Powder, Reagent, ACS is indicator for redox titrations where triiodide is present. Starch forms a very dark blue-black complex with triiodide which can be made by mixing iodine with iodide (often from potassium iodide). The color of the starch complex is so deep, that it can be detected visually when the concentration of the iodine is as low as 0.00002 M at 20 °C. As an ACS grade quality reagent, its chemical specifications are the de facto standards for chemicals used in many high-purity applications and typically designate the highest quality chemical available for laboratory use. Spectrum Chemical manufactured Reagent ACS grade products meet the toughest regulatory standards for quality and purity.
