It is the purpose of this study to relate these problems that follow gastrojejunostomy to an inability of the patients to hydrolyze the disaccharides, lactose and sucrose. Control subjects were ...

Here we introduce a new shorthand nomenclature for designating the disaccharide subunit structure of all glycosaminoglycans as a way to compare compositions and describe linear sequences.

The two main monosaccharides are glucose and fructose. The two major disaccharides are sucrose (composed of glucose and fructose) and lactose (which is made up of galactose and glucose).

Carbohydrates consist of a series of repeating units called monosaccharides, which include glucose, fructose, and galactose. Table sugar is made of sucrose, a disaccharide produced through the ...
