Polyols in confectionery: the route to sugar-free, reduced sugar and reduced calorie confectionery.

Polyol-containing confectionery offers considerable advantages over traditional sucrose-based confectionery in terms of reduced energy content and reduced cariogenicity. However, over-consumption of polyol confectionery may lead to gastrointestinal symptoms in some individuals. Rather than consider this as a distinct disadvantage to the consumer, this article discusses how careful consideration of the physico-chemical properties of polyols and advances in product development and formulation can provide suitable polyol-based products for the consumer. Furthermore. food legislation and ingredient pricing issues are just some of the factors that must be taken into account when designing new polyol-containing products if their functional benefits and good product quality are to be delivered to the consumer.

Sugar transport into protoplasts isolated from developing soybean cotyledons : I. Protoplast isolation and general characteristics of sugar transport.

A procedure is described to isolated functional protoplasts from developing soybean (Glycine max L. Merr. cv Wye) cotyledons. Studies of sucrose and hexose uptake into these protoplasts show that the plasmalemma of cotyledons during the stage of rapid seed growth contains a sucrose-specific carrier which is energetically and kinetically distinct from the system(s) involved in hexose transport. For example, sucrose, but not hexose uptake: (a) is inhibited by alkaline pH and the nonpermeant SH modifier, p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonic acid; (b) is stimulated by fusicoccin; (c) shows both a saturable and a linear component of uptake in response to substrate concentration; and (d) displays a sharp temperature response (high Q(10) value and high activation energies).
