1. What is Rhamnose?

Rhamnose (or L-Rhamnose) is a naturally occurring deoxy sugar, specifically a 6-deoxyhexose. It is commonly found in nature as a component of plant glycosides, bacterial polysaccharides, and various bioflavonoids like quercetin and rutin. Unlike many common sugars, its unique structure makes it metabolically stable in many applications, serving as an excellent building block for various compounds. For B2B clients across the cosmetic, flavor & fragrance, pharmaceutical, and food industries, a reliable Rhamnose manufacturer provides a versatile, multifunctional ingredient with diverse applications.

2. Source, propriétés chimiques et identifiants

• Source du produit : Primarily produced through the acid hydrolysis of natural plant-derived glycosides (like rutin from Sophora japonica or quercitrin from quercus species), followed by purification. It can also be produced via microbial fermentation.

• Classification chimique : Deoxy sugar (Methylpentose).

• Numéro CAS : 3615-41-6 (for L-Rhamnose monohydrate)

• Formule moléculaire (MF) : C6H12O5

• Poids moléculaire (PM) : 164.16 g/mol (Anhydrous); 182.17 g/mol (Monohydrate)

• EINECS : 222-793-4

3. What Defines the Best Rhamnose? A B2B Buyer’s Guide

Pour international marques et exportateurs, the “best” Rhamnose is defined by its high purity (anhydrous or monohydrate form), optical purity (L-enantiomer), low color, low residual mineral content, and the supplier’s ability to ensure batch-to-batch consistency.

• Ingrédient clé et efficacité : Premium Rhamnose is a high-purity compound (e.g., ≥98% or USP grade). Its value is derived from its function as a precursor and building block:

  • Skin Rejuvenation & Anti-Aging (Cosmetics): Research indicates it can stimulate aquaporin channels in skin cells, improving cellular hydration and potentially promoting the synthesis of collagen and elastin, leading to firmer, more youthful-looking skin.

  • Flavor & Fragrance Precursor: Serves as a key starting material for the synthesis of certain high-value flavor compounds.

  • Intermédiaire pharmaceutique : Used in the synthesis of certain antibiotics, vitamins (like B2), and other bioactive molecules.

  • Sweetness Modifier: Can be used to modify the sweetness profile and mouthfeel in food and beverage applications.

  • (Compliant for use in cosmetics, as a food additive (where approved), and as a pharmaceutical intermediate. Regulatory status varies by application and region.)

• Origine et qualité : Our Rhamnose is derived from hydrolyzing high-quality plant glycosides, ensuring a natural origin and a product free from allergens common in other sources.

• Utilisation et dosage :

  • Utilisation typique : Incorporated into anti-aging serums, creams, lotions, functional food formulations, and as a raw material for chemical synthesis.

  • Posologie recommandée : In cosmetic formulations, effective concentrations typically range from 1% to 5%. Usage levels in other applications are highly specific to the desired outcome.

• Public concerné : Formulators developing high-end anti-aging cosmetics, flavor & fragrance houses, pharmaceutical synthesis departments, and functional food developers.

• Remarques et effets secondaires :

  • Précautions: Generally recognized as safe for topical use and as a food component in moderate amounts. It is poorly absorbed in the human intestine.

  • Effets secondaires : None known for topical use. Excessive oral consumption may have a laxative effect, similar to other sugars.

6. Processus de production et contrôle qualité

Our production of L-Rhamnose typically begins with the extraction of flavonoid glycosides (like rutin) from selected plant sources. The extracted glycosides then undergo a controlled acid hydrolysis process, which selectively cleaves the sugar moieties, releasing Rhamnose. The resulting hydrolysate is then subjected to a meticulous multi-stage purification process. This involves steps like neutralization, filtration, decolorization (using activated carbon), and crystallization to isolate the pure L-Rhamnose, which is then dried and milled to the desired particle size.

Notre Contrôle de qualité is integrated into every step of the manufacturing process. It starts with the authentication and assay of the raw plant material. In-process testing during hydrolysis monitors the reaction completion and helps minimize the formation of degradation products. The final product is rigorously analyzed. Chromatographie liquide à haute performance (HPLC) with a refractive index (RI) or evaporative light scattering (ELSD) detector is the primary method for quantifying the Rhamnose content and assessing purity. Polarimétrie is essential to confirm the specific optical rotation, ensuring the product is the biologically relevant L-enantiomer and not a racemic mixture. Spectroscopie IRTF confirms the identity of the compound. We also employ ICP-MS for sensitive heavy metal detection and standard microbiological testing. This multi-tiered QC protocol guarantees a product that is pure, safe, and consistent for our global clients.

7. Scénarios d'application

Rhamnose is a versatile ingredient for multiple high-value industries:

• Cosmeceuticals & Skincare: The primary application is in high-end anti-aging products, moisturizers, and serums for its purported skin rejuvenation and hydrating properties.

• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Used as a starting material for the synthesis of certain furanone flavors and fragrance components.

• Médicaments: Employed as a chiral building block and intermediate in the synthesis of various antibiotics, vitamins, and other active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

• Alimentation et boissons : Used as a mild sweetener and texturizer in some specialized food products.

8. Rôle technique, recherche et innovation

Rhamnose’s value lies in its role as a stable, natural chiral building block. Its proposed mechanism in skincare involves the upregulation of aquaporin-3 (AQP3) water channels in the skin, enhancing moisture transport and potentially influencing gene expression for collagen production. Current frontières de la recherche are exploring its use in synthesizing novel glycoconjugates for targeted drug delivery and its prebiotic potential. The main défi and area of innovation is improving the cost-efficiency of its production from sustainable sources and developing new, high-value derivatives. At Zhonghong, our R&D focuses on optimizing our hydrolysis and purification technology to provide our B2B partners with a high-purity, competitively priced product that meets the evolving needs of the market.
