Common NameArabinose
DescriptionD-Arabinose, also known as (+/-)-arabinose or aloe sugar, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pentoses. These are monosaccharides in which the carbohydrate moiety contains five carbon atoms. Therefore, arabinose could be used in foods to attenuate the peak of glycemic response (see: glycemic index) after the consumption of sucrose. These foods are especially popular in Japan and China, where arabinose is legally used as a food additive. Arabinose is an aldopentose – a monosaccharide containing five carbon atoms, and including an aldehyde (CHO) functional group. D-Arabinose is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, D-Arabinose has been detected, but not quantified in, sweet basils and tamarinds. This could make D-arabinose a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. For biosynthetic reasons, most saccharides are almost always more abundant in nature as the "D"-form, or structurally analogous to D-glyceraldehyde. Arabinose gets its name from gum arabic, from which it was first isolated. This claim requires further validation. This inhibitory effect has been validated both in rodents and humans.
