Ordering Information

Biological Activity

1-Deoxynojirimycin is a potent α-glucosidase inhibitor commonly isolated from mulberry leaves. By selectively inhibiting intestinal α-glucosidase activities, the compound effectively blocks the enzymatic cleavage of dietary oligosaccharides and disaccharides into absorbable monosaccharides. This inhibition significantly delays intestinal glucose absorption, blunts postprandial glycemic spikes, and restores metabolic homeostasis, demonstrating significant therapeutic potency against diabetes mellitus and associated metabolic disorders.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
