Maltose solution
Maltose solution (CAS: 69-79-4, C12H22O11) is a disaccharide derived from two D-glucose units. Supplied by TSS as a BioReagent grade solution at approximately 20% in water, it is primarily utilized in biochemical research. This solution serves as a substrate for enzyme identification, differentiation, and characterization, particularly for enzymes involved in maltose metabolism and transport systems. Its purity is verified to be free from DNases, RNases, and proteases.
