Maltose is Disaccharides formed from two glucose molecules linked together. Maltose is linked by aldoses group hence a reducing agent. Maltose is a combination of double 6-carbon sugars hence has a molecular formula (C\( Ca_{b}12 Ha_{b}11 Oa_{b}22 \)
Maltose, also known as maltobiose or malt sugar, is a disaccharide formed from two units of glucose joined with an α bond. In the isomer isomaltose, the two glucose molecules are joined with an α bond. Maltose is the two-unit member of the amylose homologous series, the key structural motif of starch.
