Palatinose Monohydrate(CAT: C000419) is a naturally occurring disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose linked by an α-1,6 bond. It is commonly referred to as isomaltulose. Palatinose is notable for its slow and gradual absorption in the body compared to sucrose (table sugar). This property makes it a suitable option as a sweetener for individuals with diabetes, as it has a lower impact on blood sugar levels. Palatinose is utilized as an alternative sugar source in various food and beverage products and has gained attention for its potential health benefits.
