Abstract :

 It has been less clear how the monosaccharides glucose and fructose are metabolized when consumed 

together as the disaccharide isomaltulose (palatinose), which is composed of alpha–1,6–linked glucose 
and fructose. The aim of this study is to investigate the acute metabolism of the monosaccharide components of palatinose. At endoscopy, 20 ml of water containing 100 mg of [1–13C] glucose, [1–13C] fructose, [1–13Cglu] palatinose, or 
[1–13Cfru] palatinose was sprayed into the duodenum. Breath samples were taken at 10 min–intervals for 90 min. The 
13CO2 excretion rose more sharply after ingestion of [1–13Cfru] palatinose than that after ingestion of [1–13Cglu] palatinose, and was significantly higher after ingestion of [1–13C] fructose than that after ingestion of [1–13Cfru] palatinose 
and remained higher throughout the study period. These results illustrate a spå effect of fructose component of 
palatinose on absorption and oxidation of glucose component and should cause a gradual increase in blood glucose 
after ingestion of palatinose.
