Application


  • Effect of different proportions of glycerol and D-mannitol as plasticizer on the properties of extruded corn starch.: This paper examines how varying proportions of glycerol and D-Mannitol affect the mechanical properties of extruded corn starch, which is critical for the development of biodegradable packaging materials (Xu et al., 2023).

  • Exposure of Helicobacter pylori to clarithromycin in vitro resulting in the development of resistance and triggers metabolic reprogramming associated with virulence and pathogenicity.: The study explores how D-Mannitol contributes to metabolic reprogramming in Helicobacter pylori when exposed to clarithromycin, offering insights into antibiotic resistance mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets (Rosli et al., 2024).
