Sophorose monohydrate
Sophorose (2-O-beta-D-Glucopyranosyl-D-glucopyranose) monohydrate is a disaccharide component of microbial glycolipids, known for its hydrophobic nature, making sophorolipids effective as biosurfactants. Additionally, sophorolipids exhibit antimicrobial, antifungal, spermicidal, antiviral, and anticancer properties. In studies involving Trichoderma reesei fermentation, sophorose monohydrate has been identified as a potent inducer of cellulase gene expression.
