| Additional Infomation |
2,3,4,5-Tetrahydroxypentanal is a pentose, polyol, and hydroxy aldehyde. DL-arabinose has been reported in Arabidopsis thaliana, Streptomyces hainanense, and other organisms with relevant data. Pectin is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide found in the cell walls of all plants. Pectin binds cell walls together. It is used in the food industry as an emulsifier and stabilizer. Pectin has been attempted for various therapeutic uses, including as an antidiarrheal (but is now generally considered ineffective) and for treating hypercholesterolemia.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
