General description

Melibiose is a carbon substrate.

Application

Melibiose has been used in a study to improve the preparation of benzoylated ethyl 1-thioglycosides. It has also been used in a study to investigate the effect of water plasticization on the molecular mobility and crystallization tendency of amorphous disaccharides.
