Background
Isomaltose is a disaccharide composed of two D-glucose units linked by an α-(1,6)-glycosidic bond. It is not as common as its isomer, maltose, but it is found in starch and glycogen after partial hydrolysis. Isomaltose is a key component of isomaltitol, a sugar alcohol used as a low-calorie sweetener.
