Usage

Description

MALTOTRIITOL is a sugar alcohol sweetener derived from starch, also known as maltitol. It is a white powder with a caloric value significantly lower than that of sugar, making it a popular choice for sugar replacement in the food industry.

Uses

Used in Food Industry:
MALTOTRIITOL is used as a sugar substitute for its low-calorie content, making it suitable for various food products that require reduced sugar or calorie content. It is particularly useful in the production of diabetic-friendly and low-calorie foods, as well as in the creation of sugar-free confectionery items.
Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
MALTOTRIITOL is also utilized in the pharmaceutical industry as an excipient, which is a substance used to bind, flavor, or enhance the physical properties of a drug. Its low-calorie content and sugar alcohol properties make it an ideal ingredient for medications that require sugar replacement or calorie reduction.
Used in Oral Care Products:
Due to its non-cariogenic properties, MALTOTRIITOL is used in oral care products such as toothpaste and mouthwashes. It helps prevent tooth decay by not promoting the growth of bacteria that cause cavities, making it a beneficial ingredient for dental health products.
Used in Cosmetics and Personal Care:
MALTOTRIITOL is also employed in the cosmetics and personal care industry as a humectant, which helps retain moisture in products like lotions, creams, and shampoos. Its sugar alcohol properties provide additional benefits, such as improving the texture and consistency of these products.

ENHANCEMENT OF PROTONATED MOLECULAR IONS AND AMMONIUM*MOLECULAR ION COMPLEXES IN DIRECT-LIQUID-INTRODUCTION-MASS SPECTROMETRY OF CARBOHYDRATES

Addition of ammonium acetate to the mobile phase in direct-liquid-introduction mass spectrometry enhances the abundance of the protonated molecular ion or ammonium*molecular ion complex for compounds of biological interest.The efficacy of the method was investigated by comparing mass spectra obtained, with and without ammonium acetate, for a variety of underivatized, per-O-acetylated, and per-O-alkylated carbohydrates, and for several underivatized peptides.The mass spectra of the per-O-alkylated carbohydrates obtained by direct-liquid-introduction mass spectrometry with ammonium acetate were also compared to those obtained by thermospray mass spectrometry.

Congruent strategies for carbohydrate sequencing. 1. Mining structural details by MSn

This report is the first in a series of three focused on establishing congruent strategies for carbohydrate sequencing. The reports are divided into (i) analytical considerations that account for all aspects of small oligomer structure by MSn disassembly, (ii) database support using an ion fragment library and associated tools for high-throughput analysis, and (iii) a concluding algorithm for defining oligosaccharide topology from MSn disassembly pathways. The analytical contribution of this first report explores the limits of structural detail exposed by ion trap mass spectrometry with samples prepared as methyl derivatives and analyzed as metal ion adducts. This data mining effort focuses on correlating the fragments of small oligomers to stereospecific glycan structures, an outcome attributed to a combination of metal ion adduction and analyte conformation. Facile glycosidic cleavage introduces a point of lability (pyranosyl-1-ene) that upon collisional activation initiates subsequent ring fragmentation. Product masses and ion intensities vary with interresidue linkage, branching position, and monomer stereochemistry. Excessive fragmentation is the property of small oligomers where collisional energy within a smaller number of oscillators dissipates through extensive fragmentation. The procedures discussed in this report are unified into a singular strategy using an ion trap mass spectrometer with the sensitivity expected for electron multiplier detection. Although a small set of structures have been discussed, the basic principles considered are fully congruent, with ample opportunities for expansion.
