Raffinose
Raffinose (Melitriose) is a plant-derived trisaccharide of galactose, glucose, and fructose. As a non-digestible oligosaccharide, it serves as a substrate for α-galactosidase (α-GAL) in enzymatic research and is used to study carbohydrate metabolism and prebiotic effects in both in vitro and in vivo models.
