Trehalulose is a disaccharide made up of a molecule of fructose bound to a molecule of glucose. Like isomaltulose, it is a structural isomer of sucrose that is present in small quantities in honey.[1] It makes up 50% of sugars in the honeydew of silverleaf whiteflies[2][3] and is synthesised from sucrose by some bacteria,[4][5] such as Protaminombacter rubrum.[6][1] Because the anomeric carbon of the fructose moiety is not involved in the glycosidic bond, it is a reducing sugar.[6]
