Metabolite Identification
Common NameD-Tagatose
DescriptionD-Tagatose (CAS: 87-81-0), a rare natural hexoketose, is an isomer of D-galactose. D-Tagatose occurs naturally in Sterculia setigera gum, and it is also found in small quantities in various foods such as sterilized and powdered cow's milk, hot cocoa, and a variety of cheeses, yogurts, and other dairy products. It can be synthesized from D-galactose by isomerization under alkaline conditions in the presence of calcium. D-Tagatose has numerous health benefits, including promotion of weight loss; no glycemic effect; anti-plaque, non-cariogenic, anti-halitosis, prebiotic, and anti-biofilm properties; organ transplants; enhancement of flavor; improvement of pregnancy and fetal development; obesity treatment; and reduction in symptoms associated with type 2 diabetes, hyperglycemia, anemia, and hemophilia (PMID: 17492284 ).

Chemical Taxonomy
Description belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are compounds containing one carbohydrate unit not glycosidically linked to another such unit, and no set of two or more glycosidically linked carbohydrate units. Monosaccharides have the general formula CnH2nOn.
