Maltose - Feed Ingredient
Maltose is a disaccharide sugar composed of two glucose molecules linked by an α(1→4) bond. It is commonly produced during the enzymatic breakdown of starch, such as in the malting of grains like barley, hence the name “malt sugar.”
In equine feed formulations, maltose may be present as a result of processing starch-rich ingredients or added directly as a sweetener or energy source. It contributes to the palatability of feeds and can provide a quick source of digestible carbohydrate energy.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Maltose as an ingredient.
