193.11.28.198 removed this sentence: "Hence, an equimolar solution of glucose will theoretically reduce twice as much copper (II) ions as maltose." Should it be put back?

[edit] Hammerase?

I'm pretty sure hammerase doesn't exist, and that it's vandalism. not 100% though. ~Squiggle —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.21.155.92 (talk) 11:16, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't exist from what I've seen ~Frupert

[edit] taste/sweetness

If it's used in confectionery, I take it that pure maltose has a sweet taste. How does it compare in sweetness to other sugars, pure glucose, fructose, sucrose, etc.? Fundamentisto (talk) 12:30, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind, I found the answer in the article on fructose. Fundamentisto (talk) 15:00, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Layout/Stub

I really don't like the layout of the page... Should someone fix it? That and I believe the article should be classified as a stub - due to it's severe lack of information when compared to other sugars. ~Frupert
