Biochemsyn has achieved the kilogram scale production of N-Acetyl-D-lactosamine (LacNAc)!

LacNAc is a natural structural element in a variety of glycoconjugates, found in milk, urine, meconium and glycoproteins. It's a substrate for galactosidases, fucosyltransferases, and sialyltransferases. It is useful as a lectin inhibitory sugar and for characterizing lectins.
