what carbon postiton is the carbonyl group on in glucose
1
1 of 17
what carbons react together to form cyclic glucose
1 and 6
2 of 17
what differentiates beta and alpha glucose
in beta OH groups on 1 and 4 on diff sides. same on alpha
3 of 17
cyclic or straight chain more reactive?how does it cyclise?
straight chain. cyclic stored in cells. natural form as cyclised, addded to water it cyclises
4 of 17
glucose as a fermentables sugar
is fermentable. produces alcohol and carbon dioxide
5 of 17
what is oligiosaccharide size
up to 9 rings
6 of 17
how are disaccharides formed
condesnation reaction between OH groups. forms glycosidic bond. water released
7 of 17
examples of disaccharides
lactose, sucrose, maltose
8 of 17
polysaccharides examples
cellulouse starch glycogen
9 of 17
starch uses and structure
energy source in plants. amylose and amylopectin. amylose alpha 1,4 glycosidic bonds straight. amylopectin alpha 1,4 and 1,6 glycosidic, branched.
10 of 17
glycogen uses and structure
energy store in animals. found in liver and skeletal muscle cells. made from alpha 1,4 and 1,6 glycosidic bonds
11 of 17
cellulose uses and structure
plant cell wall. indigestbale in animals. beta 1,4 gycosidic bonds. inverson of very other glucose, straight chain. h bonds between chains. stiff structurally important shape
12 of 17
IBS casues in relation to sugars
irriation by porcessed foods FODMAS. high in sugar. mono and disacchrides fermentable releasing carbon dioxide causing irration
13 of 17
what and how is fructose fermented
into mannitol, replaces carbonyl group with hydroxyl group
14 of 17
explain dihorreha from mannitol
H bonds form between mannitol OH group and water- high osmotic value, high solubilty.
15 of 17
what is conjunction with carbohydrates
increasing solubility of a drug by adding sugars
16 of 17
main sugar used in conjunction, explain it
glucuronic acid- oxidised product of glucose. allows for increased H bonding as more OH groups. more soluble, elimation by kidney so drug easier excreted
