Carbohydrate Structure
CARBOHYDRATES ARE THE MOST ABUNDANT CLASS OF
COMPOUNDS IN THE BIOLOGICAL WORLD.
IT CONSTITUTES 50% OF THE DRY MASS OF THE EARTH’S
BIOMASS.
MOST IMPORTANT CONSTITUENT OF ALL
LIVING ORGANISMS. STRUCTURAL
COMPONENTS OF CELLS AND RECOGNITION
SITES ON CELL SURFACES.
ROOTS, FRUITS, STEM, SEEDS
AND LEAVES CONTAIN
CARBOHYDRATE. Plants use them
for their own metabolic need and
serve the metabolic need of
animals.

Monomers and polymers
Functional properties
– Sweetness
– Chemical reactivity
– Polymer functionality
Simple Sugars
• Cannot be broken down by mild acid
hydrolysis
• C3-9 (esp. 5 and 6)
• Polyalcohols with aldehyde or ketone
functional group
• Many chiral compounds
• C has tetrahedral bond angles

Chiral Carbons
• A carbon is chiral if it has four different groups
• Chiral compounds have the same composition but
are not superimposable

Ring Formation
• Intramolecular reaction between alcohol
and carbonyl to form a ring
– 6-membered rings are pyranose
– 5-membered are furanose
• Generates a new a-carbon and two
additional anomers (a- and b-)
Oxidation
(or “What does it mean to be a reducing sugar”)
• Aldehydes can be oxidized to corresponding
carboxylic acids

Sweet but slowly absorbed
Glucose is reduced to sorbitol (glucitol)
Xylose can be reduced to xylitol
Once reduced – less reactive; not absorbed

to an alcohol to form an ester

• Frequent way to react with a fatty acids
– A few subsituents to form a surfactants
– 6-8 to form OLESTRA
Dimerization
• An alcohol can add to the alcohol of a hemiacetal (formed
after ring formation) to form an acetal
• Dehydration

• Depending which conformation the hemiacetal is, the link
can either be a- or b-, once link is formed it is fixed
Example Simple Sugars
• Maltose
• Malt sugar, enzymatic degradation
product from starch
• Mild sweetness characteristic flavor
• Two glucose pyranose rings linked by
an a-1-4 bond
• Ring can open and close so a
REDUCING SUGAR
Example Simple Sugars
• Sucrose
• Table sugar
 a-glucopyranose and b-fructofuranose in an
a, 1-1 link
• The rings cannot open so NOT a reducing
sugar
• Easily hydrolyzed
• Used to make caramels
Example Simple Sugars
• Lactose
• ~5% milk (~50% milk
solids). Does not occur
elsewhere
• Glucose-galactose linked
by 1-4 b glycosidic bond.
• Galactose opens and
closes so REDUCING
sugar
• Lactase deficiency leads
to lactose intolerance.
(More resistant than
sucrose to acid
hydrolysis).
Example Simple Sugars

Trehalose
Two glucose molecules with an a 1,1 linkage
Non reducing, mild sweetness, non-hygroscopic
Protection against dehydration
Browning Chemistry
• What components are involved? What is
the chemistry?
• Are there any nutritional/safety concerns?
• Are there any positive or negative quality
concerns?
• How can I use processing/ingredients to
control it?
Types of Browning
• Enzymatic
• Caramelization
• Maillard
– Ascorbic acid browning
• (Lipid)
Polymers lead to color – Small molecules to flavor
Caramelization
• Heat to 200°C
– 35 min heating, 4% moisture loss
• Sucrose dehydrated (isosacchrosan)
– 55 min heating, total 9% moisture loss
• Sucrose dimerization and dehydration  caramelan
– 55 min heating. Total 14% moisture loss
• Sucrose trimerization and dehydration  caramelen
• More heating darker, larger polymers
insolubilization
• Flavor
Maillard Browning
• “the sequence of events that begins with
reaction of the amino group of amino acids
with a glycosidic hydroxyl group of sugars;
the sequence terminates with the formation
of brown nitrogenous polymers or
melanoidins”
– John deMan
Maillard Browning
1. Formation of an N-glucosamine
Esp LYSINE
2. Amadori Rearrangement
3. (Formation of diketosamine)
4. Degradation of Amadori Product
Mild sweet flavor
5. Condensation and polymerization
color
Involvement of Protein
-Strecker Degradation• Amine can add to dicarbonyl
– Lysine particularly aggressive
• Adduct breaks down to aldehyde
– Nutty/meaty flavors
– Nutritional loss
Nutritional Consequences
• Lysine loss
• Mutagenic/carcinogenic heterocyclics
• Antioxidants
Control Steps
• Rapidly accelerated by temperature
• Significant acceleration at intermediate water
activities
• Sugar type
– Pentose>hexose>disaccharide>>polysaccharide
• protein concentration (free amines)
• Inhibited by acid
– amines are protonated
– and used up, pH drops
• Sulfur dioxide
