| Abstract | BACKGROUND/AIMS: Isomaltulose (alpha-D-glucosylpyranosyl-1,6-D-fructofuranose) is a natural disaccharide used in human nutrition. It is structurally related to sucrose, but more slowly hydrolyzed and absorbed. Because this sugar's metabolic effects are poorly characterized, we compared the effects of chronic ad libitum access to high-isomaltulose and high-sucrose diets on glucose metabolism in rats. METHODS: Adult male rats were offered 62% isomaltulose, sucrose or starch diets ad libitum for 26 (trial 1) or 56 (trial 2) days. After 2- to 3-week adaptation, plasma glucose, fructose and insulin were measured after test meals of the adaptation diet. RESULTS: The main finding was that both plasma glucose and plasma insulin concentrations were transiently but markedly increased after sucrose test meals compared to isomaltulose or starch meals. These differences were not associated with consistent differences in food intake, body weight gain or adiposity. CONCLUSIONS: Chronic isomaltulose feeding has beneficial effects on postprandial glucose metabolism in comparison to sucrose feeding in rats, although the effects are modest. Further work is warranted to determine whether substitution of isomaltulose for sucrose or other sweet carbohydrates might be therapeutically useful in patients with, or at risk for, insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes mellitus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
