Hydrolysis of polysaccharides. uted in nature, occurring in saliva and pancreatic excretions in mammals as weIl as in plants and microorganisms. Alpha-l,4linkages are hydrolyzed in the presence of this enzyme, resulting in a mixture of glucose, maltose, and some short polysaccharides which, because ofthe presence ofbranches, are not hydrolyzed further.
This refers to the configuration of the hydroxyl group on the last carbon before the end or the fifth carbon as is the case in hexoses. If the sugar has the D configuration, the OH appears on the right (dextro). The L configuration is the opposite, with the OH on the left (levo). Sorbose is the only one shown that has this configuration. Each monosaccharide can exist in either the D or L configuration, and these are called enatiomorphs or mirror images. AB you can also see in the structures, two of the sugars have a different location of the carbonyl group (C=O) in the molecule.

It has been shown that saturated fats in the diet can lead to increased serum cholesterollevels. It has been estimated that at least 85% of the deaths in this country are, in some way, diet related. Leading causes are heart attack, stroke, and other coronary problems. Obesity and serum cholesterollevels are contributory factors in these diseases.
