maltose

(môl′tōs′, -tōz′)

A white disaccharide, C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁, formed during the digestion of starch. Also called malt sugar.

maltose

A disaccharide composed of two glucose molecule joined by a 1–>4 bond via a condensation reaction when amylase breaks down starch, as occurs in germinating seeds such as barley.

maltose

A disaccharide sugar consisting of two linked molecules of glucose. It is produced by the enzymatic splitting, during digestion, of starches and glycogen.

maltose

a disaccharide CARBOHYDRATE consisting of two GLUCOSE units linked by a GLYCOSIDE bond and common in germinating barley (see Fig. 216 ). The barley seeds are soaked in water, initiating the release of large amounts of AMYLASE, a hydrolytic enzyme that breaks down stored starch into maltose, a reducing sugar.
