Article Synopsis
  • * By replicating the sucrose cleavage process through model reactions and utilizing various analytical methods, the researchers found that heating sucrose at 330 °C produces glucose and fructose, with fructose yielding more 5-HMF, a compound with notable antioxidant properties.
  • * The main source of 5-HMF was identified as fructose, while the pigment formation involved a reaction between 5-HMF and glucose at a lower temperature of 150 °C, showing different pathways of compound development during sugar smoking.
