D-Glucose-6-phosphate (dipotassium hydrate) is a biochemical reagent utilized in glycobiology research. This field focuses on the study of carbohydrates' structure, synthesis, biology, and evolution. It encompasses carbohydrate chemistry, glycan formation and degradation enzymology, protein-glycan interactions, and glycans' roles in biological systems. Glycobiology is closely linked with fundamental research, biomedicine, and biotechnology.
