Procedures concerning cryopreservation have used raffinose to provide hypertonicity for cell desiccation prior to freezing. Either raffinose or sucrose is used as a base substance for sucralose.

Raffinose is a trisaccharide composed of galactose glucose and fructose. It can be found in beans cabbage brussels sprouts broccoli asparagus other vegetables and whole grains. Raffinose can be hydrolyzed to D-galactose and sucrose by the enzyme -galactosidase (-GAL) an enzyme not found in the human digestive tract. -GAL also hydrolyzes other -galactosides such as stachyose verbascose and galactinol if present. The enzyme does not cleave -linked galactose as in lactose.
