Product Description
D(–)-Ribose (C₅H₁₀O₅) is a naturally occurring pentose monosaccharide (five-carbon sugar) essential in the formation of nucleotides, nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), and various coenzymes such as ATP, NADH, and FAD. It plays a vital role in cellular energy metabolism and is widely used in biochemical research, nutritional supplements, and pharmaceutical formulations.
Due to its high purity and excellent solubility, D(–)-Ribose is a preferred reagent for biotechnology, metabolic studies, and energy restoration formulations. It is also used as a nutraceutical ingredient for promoting cardiovascular and muscular energy recovery.
