Chemical compound
Arabitol , or arabinitol , is a sugar alcohol . It can be formed by the reduction of either arabinose or lyxose . Some organic acid tests check for the presence of D -arabitol, which may indicate overgrowth of intestinal microbes such as Candida albicans or other yeast /fungus species.[2]
