General description

Maltotriitol is a sugar. [1]

Application

The presence of maltotriitol (C(18)H(34)O(16)) in maltose syrup is responsible for a change of the crystal morphology in the industrial crystallization process of maltitol (C(12)H(24)O(11)). [2] Maltotriitol can be used as an inhibitor of acid production in human dental plaque. [3]

This study evaluated acid production from cooked starch by Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sobrinus, Streptococcus sanguinis and Streptococcus mitis, and the effects of alpha-amylase inhibitors (maltotriitol and acarbose) and xylitol on acid production. Streptococcal cell suspensions were anaerobically incubated with various

The effect of the oligosaccharide analog maltotriitol (G3OH) on the action pattern of porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase (PPA) was examined using amylose as a substrate. Fluorescence titration indicated that two molecules of G3OH can bind to one molecule of PPA. The

Lysine residues of porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase (PPA) were modified with trinitrobenzenesulfonate (TNBS). 6 out of 21 lysine residues were modified per PPA molecule. Amylase activity (hydrolysis of the alpha-1,4-D-glucoside bond) was decreased to about 50% of the native enzyme, as
