What is D-xylose?

Natural sweetener D-xylose, also known as D-aldopentose, is a five-carbon monosaccharide. It is widely found in plant hemicellulose, such as sawdust, straw, corn cobs, etc., and is a product of hydrolysis of these plants. It is a white or off-white crystal with a slightly special smell and refreshing sweetness, and its sweetness is about 40% of sucrose. It is easily soluble in water, difficult to dissolve in ethanol, and has right-handed and mutarotation. It mainly exists in the D-configuration in nature and is one of the most widely distributed five-carbon sugars in nature. Due to its unique chemical properties and physiological activity, D-xylose shows great application potential in many fields such as food, medicine, chemical industry, and feed.

Functions and Applications:

Food additives: D-xylose is a natural sweetener with moderate sweetness and a refreshing taste. It can improve the taste and flavor of food. Compared with traditional sweeteners, it has lower calories and higher health value. It cannot be directly absorbed and utilized by the human body, but it can promote the proliferation of beneficial intestinal flora, regulate the balance of intestinal microecology, and help improve intestinal health. D-xylose can also be made into xylitol, which has physiological functions such as preventing dental caries, lowering blood sugar and blood lipids, and is an ideal sweet substitute for diabetics and obese people. It can also promote the Maillard reaction, increase the aroma and color of food, and make food more tempting.

Pharmaceutical raw materials: D-xylose can be used for liver function tests, and the D-xylose absorption test can be used to evaluate small intestinal function. In addition, it can also be used as an intermediate for antibacterial drugs and vitamin drugs, and as an excipient in oral liquids, injections and other preparations. It can also promote the proliferation of intestinal bifidobacteria, regulate intestinal flora, and improve intestinal health. Improve the body's absorption rate of calcium and prevent constipation. Lower serum cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

Chemical industry: D-xylose can be used to produce furfural, an important organic chemical raw material, and can also be used to prepare surfactants, environmentally friendly biodegradable materials and new bio-based polymers.

Feed industry: D-xylose, as a feed additive, can improve animal growth performance, improve animal intestinal health, and increase feed utilization.

Introduction	D-Xylose is a naturally occurring pentose, a monosaccharide with a chemical formula of C₅H₁₀O₅ and a molecular weight of 150.13. It is widely present in the hemicellulose of plants in the form of polysaccharides (xylan), especially in plant materials such as corn cobs, cottonseed hulls, bagasse, and rice husks. As a natural pentose, D-Xylose has the characteristics of low calories and high sweetness, and is widely used in food, medicine, and industry. It not only helps regulate intestinal health, but also serves as an important biochemical raw material with high application value.
Function	Regulate intestinal flora: D-xylose can selectively promote the proliferation of beneficial bacteria such as intestinal bifidobacteria, making them the dominant intestinal flora, thereby regulating the balance of intestinal microecology and promoting intestinal health. This two-way regulation mechanism makes D-xylose an ideal choice for treating constipation and diarrhea. Reduce blood sugar and blood lipids: D-xylose is a water-soluble dietary fiber and has some physiological functions of dietary fiber. It can block the hydrolysis of carbohydrates in the digestive tract, effectively control blood sugar levels, and has a good effect on preventing hyperlipidemia. At the same time, it can also increase the ratio of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in female serum and further improve blood lipid status. Anti-caries: D-xylose cannot be used by oral bacteria or decomposed by oral enzymes, so it will not cause tooth caries. When used in combination with sucrose, it can also prevent sucrose from being used by caries pathogens to form tartar and protect tooth health. Improve immunity: D-xylose can promote the proliferation of beneficial intestinal flora. These flora will produce nutrients such as vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, niacin and folic acid during metabolism. After being absorbed and utilized by the human body, they help improve immunity.
