Saccharin (CAS 81-07-2)
QUICK LINKS
Saccharin is widely utilized in research focusing on taste perception and the biological mechanisms underlying sweet taste receptors. This artificial sweetener is studied for its ability to bind to and activate these receptors, which are located on the tongue′s taste buds, providing insights into the complex processes of taste signaling and perception. Research on Saccharin also explores its effects on the metabolic responses in the body, particularly how it influences insulin release and glucose metabolism despite not being a sugar. Additionally, Saccharin is used in environmental studies to trace the pathways and persistence of artificial sweeteners in water systems, helping to assess their impact on ecosystems. Investigations into the stability and degradation of Saccharin under various environmental conditions further contribute to understanding its long-term environmental effects.
