Lglukos
Lglukos, also known as L-glucose, is the enantiomer of the common monosaccharide D-glucose. It shares the same chemical formula, C6H12O6, and similar physical properties, but its mirror-image configuration at all chiral centers gives it opposite optical activity. In biochemical terms, Lglukos is the non-native enantiomer of glucose for most organisms.
In nature, Lglukos is rare. Most biological systems, including humans, metabolize or transport only the D-configuration
Lglukos is primarily encountered in research and educational contexts. It is used as a non-metabolizable sugar
Applications of Lglukos in diagnostics and experimentation include serving as a control sugar in absorption and
