Chemical compound
Stachyose is a tetrasaccharide consisting of two α-D -galactose units, one α-D -glucose unit, and one β-D -fructose unit sequentially linked as Gal(α1→6)Gal(α1→6)Glc(α1↔2β)Fruf.[ 1] Together with related oligosaccharides such as raffinose , stachyose occurs naturally in numerous vegetables (e.g. green beans , soybeans and other beans) and other plants.
Stachyose is less sweet than sucrose , at about 28% on a weight basis. It is mainly used as a bulk sweetener or for its functional oligosaccharide properties.[ 2] [additional citation(s) needed ] Stachyose is not completely digestible by humans and delivers 1.5 to 2.4 kcal /g (6 to 10 kJ /g).
