  • Soluble Carbohydrates in Two Buffalograss Cultivars with Contrasting Freezing Tolerance
    J. AMER. SOC. HORT. SCI. 127(1):45–49. 2002. Soluble Carbohydrates in Two Buffalograss Cultivars with Contrasting Freezing Tolerance S. Ball, Y.L. Qian,1 and C. Stushnoff Department of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523-1173 DDITIONAL INDEX WORDS A . Buchloe dactyloides, cold hardiness, fructose, glucose, raffinose, sucrose, LT50 ABSTRACT. No information is available regarding endogenous soluble carbohydrate accumulation in buffalograss [Buchloe dactyloides (Nutt.) Engelm.] during cold acclimation. The objective of this study was to determine composition of soluble carbohydrates and their relationship to freezing tolerance in two buffalograss cultivars, 609 and NE 91-118, with different freezing tolerances. The experiment was conducted under natural cold acclimation conditions in two consecutive years in Fort Collins, Colo. Based upon average LT50 (subfreezing temperature resulting in 50% mortality) from seven sampling intervals in 1998–99 and six sampling intervals in 1999–2000, ‘NE 91-118’ survived 4.5 °C and 4.9 °C colder temperatures than ‘609’, during the 1998-1999 and 1999–2000 winter seasons, respectively. Glucose, fructose, sucrose, and raffinose were found in both cultivars in both years, and were generally higher in acclimated than pre- and post-acclimated stolons. Stachyose was not present in sufficient quantities for quantification. Cultivar NE 91-118 contained 63% to 77% more glucose and 41% to 51% more raffinose than ‘609’ in the 1998–99 and 1999–2000 winter seasons, respectively. In 1999–2000, fructose content in ‘NE 91-118’ was significantly higher than that of ‘609’. A significant negative correlation was found between LT50 vs. all carbohydrates in 1999–2000, and LT50 vs.

  • Carbohydrates Are Defined As Polyhydroxy Aldehydes Or Polyhydroxy Ketones Or Compounds That on Hydrolysis Produce Either Acetic Acid and Lactic Acid
    ¾ Carbohydrates are defined as polyhydroxy aldehydes or polyhydroxy ketones or compounds that on hydrolysis produce either acetic acid and lactic acid. They are substances of universal occurrence and are much abundant in plants rather than in animals. ¾ Carbohydrates are grouped into two major classes: simple sugars (saccharides) and polysaccharides. Low molecular weight carbohydrtes are crystalline, soluble in water and sweet in taste; example glucose, fructose and sucrose. The high molecular weight carbohydrates (polymers) are amorphous, tasteless and relatievly less soluble in water; example starch, cellulose, gums, pectins, inulin etc. Bioses : Two carbon atom. Trisoes: Three carbon atoms, but in the form of phospheric esters, eg: glyceraldehyde Tetroses : Four carbon atoms eg: erythroses Pentoses: hemicellulose, mucilage ad gums Hexoses : six carbon atoms aldoses: glucose, mannose, galactose. ketoses: fructose and sorbose Carbohydrates which upon hydrolysis yield two molecules of monosaccharide are called as disaccharides. Sucrose on hydrolysis gives glucose and fructose (sugarcane) Maltose on hydrolysis gives glucose and glucose (malt sugar) Lactose on hydrolysis gives glucose and galactose (cow’s milk) These liberate three molecules of monosaccharides on hydrolysis. Raffinose on hydrolysis gives glucose , fructose and galactose. Gentianose on hydrolysis gives two glucose molecules and fructose Scillatriose , mannotrose , phanteose are the other examples. Stachyose , a tetrasaccharide, yields on hydrolysis , four molecules

  • Determining the Effect of Small Doses of Fructose and Its Epimers on Glycemic Control
    Determining the Effect of Small Doses of Fructose and its Epimers on Glycemic Control by Jarvis Clyde Noronha A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Nutritional Sciences University of Toronto © Copyright by Jarvis Clyde Noronha 2017 ii Determining the Effect of Small Doses of Fructose and its Epimers on Glycemic Control Jarvis Clyde Noronha Master of Science Department of Nutritional Sciences University of Toronto 2017 Abstract Given that sugars have emerged as the dominant nutrient of concern in diabetes, there is a need for the development of alternative sweeteners. To assess the role of small doses (5g, 10g) of fructose and allulose on postprandial glucose metabolism, we conducted an acute randomized controlled trial in individuals with type 2 diabetes. We found that small doses of allulose, but not fructose, modestly reduced the postprandial glycemic response to a 75g oral glucose load. To assess whether low-dose (< 50-g/day) fructose and all its epimers (allulose, tagatose and sorbose) lead to sustainable improvements in long-term glycemic control, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of controlled feeding trials. The available evidence suggested that fructose and tagatose led to significant reductions in HbA1c and fasting glucose. Our findings highlight the need for long-term randomized controlled trials to confirm the viability of fructose and its epimers as alternative sweeteners. iii Table of Contents Contents Abstract ...........................................................................................................................

  • And Honeydew Sugars with Respect to Their Utilization by the Hymenopteran Parasitoid Cotesia Glomerata F.L
    Journal of Insect Physiology 47 (2001) 1077–1084 www.elsevier.com/locate/jinsphys A comparison of nectar- and honeydew sugars with respect to their utilization by the hymenopteran parasitoid Cotesia glomerata F.L. Wa¨ckers * Institute of Plant Sciences, Applied Entomology, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), 8092 Zurich, Switzerland Received 10 October 2000; received in revised form 12 February 2001; accepted 19 February 2001 Abstract Fourteen naturally occurring sugars were individually tested with respect to their effect on Cotesia glomerata longevity. Parasitoids kept with solutions of either sucrose, glucose and fructose lived for Ͼ30 days. This constitutes a factor 15 increase in life span in comparison to control individuals kept with water only. Stachyose, mannose, melezitose, melibiose, maltose and erlose increased parasitoid longevity by a factor of 11.2–6.9. Solutions of galactose and trehalose had a marginal, but still significant effect. Lactose and raffinose did not raise parasitoid longevity, while rhamnose actually reduced parasitoid survival. In an additional experiment, the relationship between quantity of sugar consumption and longevity was established for all 14 sugars. To study the effect of an unsuitable sugar in sugar mixtures, a range of glucose:rhamnose mixtures was tested. Even at 20% of the sugar mixture rhamnose suppressed the nutritional benefit of the 80% glucose. The nutritional suitability of the sugars shows a positive correlation with the previously reported gustatory response towards the individual sugars. Patterns of sugar utilization are discussed with respect to hydrolytic enzymes and carbohydrate biochemical characteristics. Our findings for C. glomerata are compared to patterns of sugar utilization reported for other species.

  • FDA Finalizes Allulose Guidance and Requests Information on Other Sugars Metabolized Differently Than Traditional Sugars
    FDA Finalizes Allulose Guidance and Requests Information on Other Sugars Metabolized Differently Than Traditional Sugars October 19, 2020 Food, Drug, and Device FDA has taken two notable actions regarding the sugars declaration in the Nutrition Facts Label (NFL) and Supplement Facts Label (SFL). On Friday, the agency released a final guidance regarding the declaration of allulose, confirming that this monosaccharide need not be included in the declaration of “Total Sugars” or “Added Sugars,” though it must be included in the “Total Carbohydrates” declaration in the NFL. Today, FDA published a Federal Register notice requesting information about and comments on the nutrition labeling of other sugars that are metabolized differently than traditional sugars. We briefly summarize both documents below to help inform stakeholder comments on the notice, which are due to FDA by December 18, 2020. Allulose Final Guidance Allulose, or D-psicose, is a monosaccharide that can be used as a substitute for traditional sugar in food and beverage products. For purposes of nutrition labeling, FDA has generally 1 defined nutrients based on their chemical structure.0F Accordingly, when FDA updated its NFL and SFL regulations in 2016, the agency reiterated the definition of “Total Sugars” as the sum of 2 all free monosaccharides and disaccharides (e.g. glucose, fructose, and sucrose).1F FDA also added to these regulations a definition of “Added Sugars” – sugars added during the processing 3 of food, or packaged as such – and required their declaration in the NFL and SFL.2F Although the agency recognized that there are sugars that are metabolized differently than traditional sugars, FDA did not make a determination at that time as to whether allulose should be excluded from “Total Carbohydrate,” “Total Sugars,” or “Added Sugars” Declarations.

  • Natural Alternative Sweeteners and Diabetes Management
    Current Diabetes Reports (2019) 19:142 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11892-019-1273-8 LIFESTYLE MANAGEMENT TO REDUCE DIABETES/CARDIOVASCULAR RISK (B CONWAY AND H KEENAN, SECTION EDITORS) Natural Alternative Sweeteners and Diabetes Management Emily Mejia1 & Michelle Pearlman2 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Purpose of Review The goal of this review is to discuss the data on natural alternative sweeteners and their effects on glucose homeostasis and other metabolic parameters within the past five years. We sought to answer whether common natural alternative sweeteners have a positive or negative effect on glucose control in both human and animal models, and whether the data supports their widespread use as a tool to help reduce the prevalence of diabetes and associated comorbid conditions. Recent Findings Recent studies suggest that natural alternative sweeteners may reduce hyperglycemia, improve lipid metabo- lism, and have antioxidant effects particularly in those that have baseline diabetes. Summary Diabetes and metabolic syndrome have become a global healthcare crisis and the sugar overconsumption plays a major role. The use of artificial sweeteners has become more prevalent to improve insulin resistance in those with diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, although the evidence does not support this result. There are however some promising data to suggest that natural alternative sweeteners may be a better alternative to sugar and artificial sweeteners. Keywords Natural alternative sweeteners .

Galactosyl-sucrose oligosaccharides (raffinose, stachyose and verbascose) are major components in many food legumes,1 and the anti-nutritional activity of grain legumes is frequently associated with the presence of these oligosaccharides.2 Galactosyl-sucrose oligosaccharides are not hydrolysed in the upper gut due to the absence of α-galactosidase. In the lower intestine they are metabolised by bacterial action, producing methane, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, which lead to flatulence and diarrhoea. Galactosyl- sucrose oligosaccharides are thus a factor limiting the use of grain legumes in monogastric diets.3 Several solvents have been employed for the extraction of galactosyl- sucrose oligosaccharides from legume-seed flours. These are generally water/alcohol mixtures. Before (or concurrent with) extraction, it is vital that endogenous α-galactosidase and invertase are inactivated. This can be achieved by refluxing the flour in ethanol or in an aqueous ethanol mixture before the flour is subjected to aqueous extraction. Identification and quantification of the extracted galactosyl- sucrose oligosaccharides have been achieved using an array of chromatographic procedures, however many of these methods are, at best, semi-quantitative. Chromatographic procedures employing high performance liquid chromatography and low pressure liquid chromatography (using Bio-Gel P2) are quantitative, but can be time consuming, particularly in the area of sample preparation. It is well known that raffinose, stachyose and verbascose are hydrolysed by α-galactosidase to D-galactose and sucrose. Biochemical kits for the measurement of raffinose are commercially available.
