Product Description: 2-Keto-D-Glucose (D-Glucosone) is a key intermediate in a secondary metabolic pathway leading to the antibiotic Cortalcerone. 2-Keto-D-Glucose is also an intermediate in the conversion of D-glucose into D-fructose. 2-Keto-D-Glucose is found in various natural sources, including fungi, algae, and shellfish[1][2].
Applications: COVID-19-immunoregulation
Formula: C6H10O6
