Trehalose, also known as rhamnose and mushroom sugar, is a non reducing disaccharide composed of two glucose molecules with the molecular formula C12H22O11 [8]. The structural formula of trehalose is α- D-glucopyranosyl α- D-glucopyranoside, often present as a dihydrate compound, has the molecular formula C12H22O11 · 2H2O. [1]
Trehalose is a typical stress metabolite that can form a unique protective film on the surface of cells under harsh environmental conditions such as high temperature, high cold, high osmotic pressure, and dry water loss, effectively protecting biological molecular structures from damage, thereby maintaining the life processes and biological characteristics of living organisms.
