Sucrose

Construct a 3D molecule model of the dissaccharide Sucrose utilizing Genuine Molymod Model Parts by Indigo

Sucrose, more commonly known as table sugar, is a disaccharide composed of 2 monosaccharides or simple sugars known as fructose & glucose. When ingested, your liver breaks the disaccharide down into the 2 simple sugers.

Sucrose is used to sweeten a variety of foods but in many cases has been replaced by the simple sugars fructose & glucose directly which are found in corn syrup.

A molecular model of Sucrose in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
