is illegal, right?!

" Maltose, or malt sugar, is a disaccharide formed from two units of

glucose joined with an a(1?4) linkage. It is the second member of an

important biochemical series of glucose chains. The addition of another

glucose unit yields maltotriose; further additions will produce dextrins

(also called maltodextrins) and eventually starch (glucose

polymer). "

Being a disaccharide, it's illegal. The above is from Wikipedia.
