Xylitol is a polyol substrate for xylitol dehydrogenase and sorbitol dehydrogenase derived from xylose. Xylitol serves various functions including acting as an allergenic substance, a small molecule that can elicit an immune response when attached to a large carrier (hapten), and a metabolite found in humans, algae, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and mice. Xylitol is also a subject in analytical chemistry, where it is used as a standard or reference material in chromatographic analyses.
