Application

L-Rhamnose monohydrate is a key ingredient utilized primarily for its distinct characteristics and versatile applications in various fields. As a specific type of deoxyhexose, 6-deoxy L-mannose, it plays a significant role in plant cell walls and is a component of numerous glycosides. Its structure allows it to be soluble in water and methanol, with a melting point of 105°C, and it exhibits optical activity and mutarotation. Besides, L-Rhamnose monohydrate is found in nature, including in marine environments and as part of polysaccharides in plum leaves. With a sweet and slightly bitter taste akin to D-mannose, this compound serves as a critical component for pharmaceutical and agricultural chemical development due to its physiological activity when forming sugar chains with other monosaccharides. Moreover, L-Rhamnose monohydrate is valuable in creating reaction flavors through the Maillard reaction, which occurs when it interacts with amino acids to produce distinctive aromas.
