Product Introduction
D-xylose is difficult to be broken down by the human digestive enzyme system. Saliva, gastric juice, pancreatic juice and small intestinal juice can hardly break down D-xylose, and its energy value is almost zero. Therefore, D-xylose can be used as a raw material for weight loss foods and blood sugar regulating foods.
Principle
In a strong acid solution, D-xylose is dehydrated to produce furfural, which reacts with phloroglucinol to form a pink compound, which is measured colorimetrically at a wavelength of 554nm and the D-xylose content can be calculated.
