Process Flow of D-ribose

D-ribose from Chengzhi is manufactured through fermentation technology. The raw materials for fermentation are corn steep liquor, glucose, and mineral salts. The catalytic product D-ribose is turned into the refined product through extraction and purification.  

Characteristics 

White crystal or crystalline powder, dissoluble in water and very slightly dissoluble in ethanol

Physical Functions 

As a molecule existing in all cells, D-ribose is the starting molecule for nucleotide and ATP synthesis. The molecule itself can also serve as a source for energy. It plays an important role of metabolism in cardiac and skeletal muscles and can accelerate the recovery of the local ischemic and hypoxic tissues.

Main Physiological functions:

· Provide powerful cellular energy

· Relieve fatigue

· Increase anaerobic threshold

· Improve physical and athletic performance

· Improve cardiovascular function   

· Reduce muscle stiffness and soreness

Application and Dosage

D-ribose is widely used in food, beverage, plant-based meat, sports nutrition, health food, cosmetic and animal nutrition products. 

As a cosmetic ingredient, D-ribose can be used in cosmetics to promote the skin cell metabolism. This can alleviate and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, boost skin elasticity, and refresh tired-looking skin. The suggested dosage is 0.5-1.5%.

In addition, it is an important intermediate or starting material for a variety of nucleosides drugs, such as Capecitabine, Ticagrelor, Remdecivir, etc.
