This model represents sodium chloride (NaCl) and shows a simple cubic close packed crystal structure.

This kit includes the following:

This set is contained in a plastic case, measures 23(L) x 16.5(W) x 3(H) cm

It is one of the 20 most common natural amino acids. It is hydrophobic, with a methyl group side chain, and is the second-smallest of the 20 after glycine.

Alanine is a non-essential amino acid that is involved in the metabolism of tryptophan and the vitamin pyridoxine. It is one of the most widely used amino acids in protein construction, averaging about 9 percent of average protein composition.

Symbol: Ala A Molecular Weight: 89.09 Isolectric point (pH) 6.0 Molecular Formula: C3H7NO2

It is one of the 20 most common natural amino acids on Earth, and coded for by DNA. In non-hepatic tissues, Arginine can be biosynthesized by the ornithine cycle. Even so, Arginine is often classed as one of the 10 essential amino acids.

It is a non-essential amino acid, which means that it is biosynthesized in humans.

Cysteine is a naturally occurring hydrophilic (“water loving”) amino acid which has a sulfhydryl (SH) group and is found in most proteins. When it is exposed to air it oxidizes to form cystine, which is two cysteine molecules joined by a disulfide bond.

One molecule of water (H2O) is the byproduct from the creation of each molecule of cystine. Cysteine aids in Phase II Detoxification pathway in the liver.

Cysteine also aids the metabolism of biochemicals such as heparin, biotin, coenzyme A and glutathione. Cysteine is plentiful in amaranth, cottage cheese, fish, poultry, shellfish, and soy products

It is considered a nutritive sweetener because it has food energy. Its name comes from the Ancient Greek word for milk, ???????? (galaktos).

Galactan is a polymer of the sugar galactose. It is found in hemicellulose and can be converted to galactose by hydrolysis.

Galactose solubility in water is 68.30 grams per 100 grams of water at 20–25°C.

Molecular formula: C₆H₁₂O₆

As it gives free radicals by mechanochemistry, it is possible to use lactose to follow by ESR (electron spin resonance) the energy used during a milling process.

Its empirical formula is C12H22O11 and its molecular weight is 342.3.

Mannose enters the carbohydrate metabolism stream by phosphorylation and conversion to fructose-6-phosphate. D-Mannose, which appears in some fruits including cranberry, may prevent adhesion of bacteria to tissues of the urinary tract and bladder.

Molecular formula: C₆H₁₂O₆

It is a colorless, oily, toxic, flammable organic liquid that occurs in plants, but is produced in industrial quantities from petroleum. It is used to make plastics such as polystyrene, ABS, styrene-butadiene (SBS) rubber, styrene-butadiene latex and unsaturated polyesters.

It evaporates easily and has a sweet smell. It often contains other chemicals that give it a sharp, unpleasant smell. It dissolves in some liquids but doesn’t dissolve easily in water. Billions of pounds are produced each year to make products such as rubber, plastic, insulation, fiberglass, pipes, automobile parts, food containers, and carpet backing. Most of these products contain styrene linked together in a long chain (polystyrene) as well as unlinked styrene. Low levels of styrene also occur naturally in a variety of foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, beverages, and meats.

Its molecular formula is C8H8, or structurally C6H5C2H3. It is synthesized by heating ethyl benzene (EB) with steam.
