Four Types of Carbohydrates
Monosaccharides Contain a single sugar unit Examples: glucose and fructose
Disaccharides Contain two monosaccharides units joined
through bridging oxygen atoms AKA glycosidic bond
Examples: sucrose and lactose
![Page 3: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Four Types, continued
Oligosaccharides Three to ten monosaccharide units joined by
glycosidic bonds
Polysaccharides Long, often highly branched, chains of
monosaccharides Examples: starch, glycogen, and cellulose

Monosaccharides
Composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
Most follow the general formula (CH2O)n
All names end in –oseTwo types
Ketose – monosaccharide that contains a ketone carbonyl group
Aldose – monosaccharide that contains an aldehyde carbonyl group

Another system – number of carbons
Another system of nomenclature tells us the number of carbon atoms in the main skeleton.
3 carbon triose4 carbon tetrose5 carbon pentose6 carbon hexoseEtc.

Chiral Objects
Chiral compounds have the same number of atoms arranged differently in space.
A chiral carbon atom has four different groups attached.
![Page 12: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mirror Images
The three-dimensional structure of a chiral compound has a mirror image.
Your hands are chiral. Try to superimpose your thumbs, palms, back of hands, and little fingers. Is it possible? Why or why not?

D and L Notation
D,L tells to which of the two chiral isomers we are referring.
If the –OH group on the next to the bottom carbon atom points to the right, the isomer is a D-isomer; if it points left, the isomer is L.
The D form is usually the isomer found in nature.

Importance of Glucose
Most important sugar in the human body.Glucose is broken down in glycolysis and
other pathways to release energy for body functions
The concentration of glucose in the blood is carefully controlled by insulin and glucagon.
Normal blood glucose levels are 100-120 mg/100mL
![Page 20: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Importance of Glucose
Insulin stimulates the uptake of the excess glucose by most of the cells in the body.
1-2 hrs after eating the glucose levels return to normal.
If glucose concentrations drop too low, the individual feels lightheaded and shaky. When this happens, glucagon stimulates the liver to release glucose in the blood.
![Page 21: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Diabetes / Hypoglycemia and Glucose
Type I diabetes or diabetes mellitus – caused by the inability to produce the hormone insulin; If untreated, end up with high blood sugar
Type II diabetes or adult-onset diabetes – caused by insulin resistance (body fails to properly use insulin) combined with a relative insulin deficiency; If untreated, end up with high blood sugar
Hypoglycemia – caused by the over excretion of insulin in response to a rise in blood sugar; If untreated, end up with low blood sugar
![Page 22: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Structure of glucose
In reality, the open-chain form of glucose is present in very small concentrations in cells.
In most cases, the cyclic intramolecular hemiacetal is formed.
The hydroxyl group on C-5 reacts with the aldehyde group to form a hemiacetal.
Two isomers are formed because a new chiral carbon is created.

Write –OH groups on the left (C3) upThe new –OH on C1 has two
possibilites: down for form, up for form

Benedict’s reagent
Benedict’s reagent – a basic buffer solution that contains Cu2+ ions
It readily oxidizes the aldehyde group of aldoses to form a brick red Cu2O precipitate.
It will also oxidize ketoses because of the –OH group on the carbon next to the carbonyl group.
![Page 30: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Reducing Sugars
Reducing sugar – a sugar that can be oxidized by Benedict’s reagent
All monosaccharides and the common disaccharides (except sucrose) are reducing sugars.
![Page 31: Types of Carbohydrates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/5681389c550346895da04f29/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Use of Benedict’s reagent
Benedict’s reagent was commonly used to qualitatively monitor excess glucose in the urine by diabetics to insure proper dosage of insulin.
These have been replaced by blood glucose tests that are more accurate.
