D-(+)-Trehalose Dihydrate（Cat No.:R058909）, is a disaccharide sugar that consists of two glucose molecules linked together. It naturally occurs in various organisms, including bacteria, fungi, and plants, and plays a vital role as an energy source and protective agent during stress conditions. In the food and pharmaceutical industries, it is employed as a stabilizing and cryoprotective agent, helping preserve the integrity of proteins, enzymes, and other biomolecules during freeze-drying and storage. Due to its non-reducing sugar properties and low hygroscopicity, it’s valued for its ability to extend the shelf life and maintain the quality of various products.
