Benzyl 2-acetamido-3,6-di-O-benzoyl-2-deoxy-α-D-galactopyranoside is a class of biochemical reagents used in glycobiology research. Glycobiology studies the structure, synthesis, biology, and evolution of sugars. It involves carbohydrate chemistry, enzymology of glycan formation and degradation, protein-glycan recognition, and the role of glycans in biological systems. This field is closely related to basic research, biomedicine, and biotechnology[1].
