| Description | L-Galactose (Galactose, L-) is a natural product that is widely found in plants and animals. L-Galactose has been shown to be a key intermediate in the molecular pathway for the conversion of D-glucose to oxalic acid in Pistia stratiotes.L-Galactose has been shown to be a key intermediate in the molecular pathway for the conversion of D-glucose to oxalic acid. |
