Isomaltose is a disaccharide similar to maltose, but with a ฮฑ-(1-6)-linkage instead of the ฮฑ-(1-4)-linkage. Both of the sugars are dimers of glucose, which is a pyranose sugar. Isomaltose is a reducing sugar. Isomaltose is produced when high maltose syrup is treated with the enzyme transglucosidase (TG) and is one of the major components in the mixture isomaltooligosaccharide.
It is a product of the caramelization of glucose.[1]
