Biological Activity

[Description]:

β-D-Fructose is a β-fruit sugar that can be produced by the hydrolysis of sucrose. β-D-Fructose can be used as a sweetness potentiator. β-D-Fructose can be designed as a units of antiproliferative agents against breast (MCF-7) and colon (MDST8) cancer cell lines[1].
