Trehalose, also known as mycose or tremalose, is a natural alpha-linked disaccharide formed by an α,α-1,1-glucoside bond between two α-glucose
units.In 1832, H.A.L. Wiggers discovered trehalose in an ergot of rye, and in 1859 Marcellin Berthelot isolated it from trehala manna, a substance
made by weevils, and named it trehalose.
It can be synthesised by bacteria,fungi, plants, and invertebrate animals. It is implicated in anhydrobiosis - the ability ofplants and animals to
withstand prolonged periods of desiccation. It has high water retention capabilities, and is used in food and cosmetics. The sugar is thought
to form a gel phase ascells dehydrate, which prevents disruption of internal cell organelles, by effectively splinting them in position. Rehydration
then allows normal cellular activity to be resumed without the major, lethal damage that would normally follow a dehydration/rehydration cycle.
Trehalose has the added advantage of being an antioxidant. Extracting trehalose used to be a difficult and costly process,
Trehalose is currently being used for a broad spectrum of applications.

Can be widely used in biological preparations, medicine, food, health products, fine chemicals, cosmetics, feed and agricultural science and other industries.
1. Food industry: (1) prevent starch aging (2) prevent protein denaturation (3) inhibit lipid oxidation and deterioration (4) Taste correction (5) Maintain the tissue stability and preservation of vegetables and meat (6) durable and stable energy sources.
2. Pharmaceutical industry
Trehalose can be used as a stabilizer for reagents and diagnostic drugs in the pharmaceutical industry.
3. Cosmetics:
Because trehalose has a strong moisturizing effect and sunscreen, anti-ultraviolet and other physiological effects, can be used as a moisturizing agent, protective agent added to the emulsion, mask, essence, facial cleanser, can also be used as lip balm, oral cleanser, oral fragrance and other sweetener, quality improver.
4. Crop breeding
Trehalose can also be used for seed preservation, etc. After the use of trehalose, it can effectively maintain the water molecules in the roots of seeds and seedlings, which is conducive to crop sowing.
