Application

Maltulose, an α(1,4) linked disaccharide of D-glucose and D-fructose, is used as a reference in analytical procedures to determine the extent of nonenzmatic browning induced by processes such as heating. Maltulose is used to identify, differentiate and characterize α-α-glucosidase(s).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nonenzymic browning reactions in commercial infant formulas were evaluated through their furosine content as well as the isomeric disaccharides formed during processing. Lactulose was observed only in samples containing appreciable amounts of lactose, whereas maltulose was present in all samples

Spores of the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria are cryptic to maltose and isomaltose. Induction of a transport system can be effected by several sugars whose order of effectiveness is: turanose > maltulose > sucrose > d-arabinose, d-fructose, nigerose, maltotriulose, kestose >

Klebsiella pneumoniae is presently unique among bacterial species in its ability to metabolize not only sucrose but also its five linkage-isomeric alpha-d-glucosyl-d-fructoses: trehalulose, turanose, maltulose, leucrose, and palatinose. Growth on the isomeric compounds induced a protein of molecular mass approximately
