   Maltose
   `Maltose`, or malt sugar, is a disaccharide formed from two units of glucose joined with an α(1->4) linkage. It is the second member of an important biochemical series of glucose chains. The addition of another glucose unit yields maltotriose; further additions will produce dextrins (also called maltodextrins) and eventually starch. Maltose can be broken down into two glucose molecules by hydrolysis. In living organisms, the enzyme maltase can ...
