A process for preparing sugarlike, non-fermentable and at the most weakly hygroscopicproducts from polysaccharides which on saccharification give dextrose, maltose or dextrose and maltose

摘要

Sugarlike, substantially non-fermentable and at the most weakly hygroscopic products are obtained by saccharification of a polysaccharide, which on saccharification gives dextrose and/or maltose, to a product with a dextrose equivalent of 15 to 75%, the remaining part of the saccharification product being dextrines and simultaneously or subsequently catalytically hydrogenating this saccharification product to a product still containing the dextrines of the saccharification product. Any sugar remaining after hydrogenation may be removed by fermentation or made infermentable by addition of blocking additives.
