I-Trehalose iyi-metabolite evamile yokucindezeleka engakha ifilimu evikelayo eyingqayizivele ebusweni bamaseli ngaphansi kwezimo ezinzima zemvelo ezifana nokushisa okuphezulu, ukuphakama okuphezulu, ukucindezela okukhulu kwe-osmotic, nokuphelelwa amandla kwamanzi, ukuvikela ngempumelelo ukwakheka kwama-biomolecules emonakalweni nokugcina izinqubo zokuphila kanye nezici zebhayoloji zezinto eziphilayo.
