Note

D-Ribulose (CAS: 488-84-6) is a ketopentose - a monosaccharide containing five carbon atoms, including a ketone functional group. D-Ribulose is an intermediate in the fungal pathway for D-arabitol production. As the 1,5-bisphosphate, it combines with CO2 at the start of the photosynthetic process in green plants (carbon dioxide trap). D-Ribulose is the epimer of D-xylulose (Wikipedia). Ribulose is also a microbial metabolite found in Acetobacter and Gluconobacter (PMID: 16232643, 11272814).
