Use | Molecular weight 342.30, only trace levels of natural presence in sugarcane juice and honey, with good safety, unlike sucrose, the disaccharide bond is changed from (1 → 2) to (1 → 6), that is, the non-reducing disaccharide (sucrose) is changed to the reducing disaccharide (isomeric sucrose), its reducibility is about 52% of that of glucose. The crystal was first prepared in Germany in 1957, and was named Pa1atinose by the local place name paiatin. It is white crystal, sweet and odorless, with a sweetness of about 42% of sucrose, and pure in sweetness, and sucrose is basically the same, its biggest characteristic is anti-caries, in the intestine can be hydrolyzed, absorbed by the body slowly, little effect on blood sugar, beneficial to the prevention and treatment of diabetes and prevent excessive accumulation of fat. As an anti-caries and functional sweetener, paracrine sugar is widely used in chewing gum, high-grade candy, athletes' drinks and other foods, and is mainly produced by enzymatic method at present. |
