Fructose fruit

D-fructose, C HijOo. Crystallizes in large needles m.p. 102-104 C. The most eommon ketose sugar. Combined with glucose it occurs as sucrose and rafftnose mixed with glucose it is present in fruit juices, honey and other products inulin and levan are built of fructose residues only. In natural products it is always in the furanose form, but it crystallizes in the pyranose form. It is very soluble in...

Sucrose, the compound we call sugar, is the most common disaccharide. One of the monomer units in sucrose is a-glucose. The other is fructose, a monosaccharide found in honey and natural fruit juices. 

D-Fructose Fruit juices. Honey. Hydrolysis of cane sugar and of inulin (from the Jerusalem artichoke). Can be changed to glucose in the liver and so used in the body. Hereditary fructose intolerance leads to fructose accumulation and hypoglycemia.

Glucose is the simplest carbohydrate. It is found in grapes and corn syrup. Fructose gives fruit its sweet taste. A condensation reaction between glucose and fructose produces sucrose, commonly called table sugar. Sucrose is found in sugar cane and sugar beets. 

Fructose is found in honey and fruit and as part of the disaccharide sucrose (common table sugar). Sucrose is hydrolyzed by intestinal brush border sucrase, and the resulting monosaccharides, glucose and fructose, are absorbed into the portal blood. The liver phosphorylates frurtose and cleaves it into glyceraldehyde and DHAP. Smaller amounts are metabolized in renal proximal tubules. The pathway is shown in Figure 1-12-7 important enzymes to remember are ... 

Phosphoric acid esters of the ketopentose D-ribulose (2) are intermediates in the pentose phosphate pathway (see p.l52) and in photosynthesis (see p.l28). The most widely distributed of the ketohexoses is D-fructose. In free form, it is present in fruit juices and in honey. Bound fructose is found in sucrose (B) and plant polysaccharides (e.g., inulin).
