meso-Erythritol is an allelic variation of the Tas1r3 gene which affects behavioral taste responses to sugar alcohol, suggesting that it is a T1R3 receptor ligand. Used to support the carbon source growth requirement of Gluconobacter bacteria. Its application also extends to being used in the chemical analysis of the reactivity of various radicals and radical anions, in encapsulated phase change materials for the study of its potential use in microelectronics cooling applications.
