D- (+) -Trehalose
D- (+) -Trehalose (α, α-Trehalose) is an orally active disaccharide, showing anti-desiccant and cryopreservative activities. D- (+) -Trehalose acts as an osmolyte, and stress protectant and helps in the storage and transport of carbon. D- (+) -Trehalose can be used as a food ingredient and pharmaceutical excipient[1][2][3][4].
