| Bioactivity | D-Mannoheptulose-13C is the 13C labeled D-Mannoheptulose. D-Mannoheptulose is a major non-structural carbohydrate in avocado. D-mannoheptulose is a specific inhibitor of D-glucose phosphorylation. D-Mannoheptulose can block insulin release and utilization |
| Invitro | Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1]. |
