          • Maltose
          • Lactose
          • Sucrose
          • Invert sugar
          • Molasses
          • Olestra
          • Sucralose
          • Raffinose
          • Stachyose
          • Isomaltulose, Isomalt
          • Kestose
          • Reversion
          • Polydextrose
          • Maltitol
          • Lactase
          • Lactitol
          • Lactulose
          • Fructooligosaccharides
          • alpha, alpha-trehalose

          2. Give chemical structures for maltose, lactose,  sucrose, and alpha,alpha-trehalose.

          3. Give shorthand structures for the disaccharides listed in objective 2 plus raffinose and stachyose.

          4. Make interconversions between abbreviated names and Haworth and/or conformational structures.

          5. Describe the cause and results of lactose intolerance.

          6. Describe how substances such as sucrose and sorbitol act as cryoprotectants.
