Name | Sucrose octaacetate |
Description | Sucrose octaacetate is an acetylated derivative of sucrose used as a food additive, binder, and plasticizer. It is also incorporated in many pesticides, insecticides, and other toxic products as a deterrent to accidental poisoning. |
In vitro | Sucrose octaacetate is nontoxic and widely used for its bitter taste. Polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers and nanorods are synthesized using 2 and 3 g of Sucrose octaacetate, respectively; higher concentrations result in irregular-shaped agglomerates. While the presence of Sucrose octaacetate affects the morphology, it does not alter PANI's molecular structure. Compared to those synthesized with 1, 3, and 4 g of Sucrose octaacetate, PANI polymerized from 2 g exhibits higher thermal stability and electrical conductivity due to higher crystallinity and an ordered structure [1][3]. |
In vivo | No recombination has been found between the Sucrose octaacetate-avoidance phenotype and PRP haplotype in any mouse population. To assess this, two type-A proline-rich protein genes (MP2 and M14), located approximately 30 kb apart at the Prp locus, are transferred separately from a Sucrose octaacetate-taster inbred strain (SWR) to a Sucrose octaacetate-nontaster inbred strain (FVB). Five MP2-transgenic mice and seven M14-transgenic mice remain insensitive to 1 mM Sucrose octaacetate in two-bottle tests, thus retaining the nontaster FVB phenotype [2]. |
