Arabinose is one of the most abundant pentoses in nature and it is present in various hemicellulosic and pectic plant polysaccharides, and the homoglycane arabinan. L-arabinose is traditionally used for the flavour industry in Maillard reaction and as culture media although also has been used for organic synthesis in the obtention of the L-carnitine.
