In all glucose polymers, from the native starch to glucose syrup, the molecular chain ends with a reducing sugar, containing a free aldehyde in its linear form. As the starch is hydrolysed, the molecules become shorter and more reducing sugars are present. Therefore, the dextrose equivalent describes the degree of conversion of starch to dextrose.

* In the UK, teaspoons and tablespoons are formally 1 / 160 and 1 / 40 of an imperial pint (3·55 mL and 14·21 mL), respectively. In Canada, a teaspoon is historically 1 ⁄ 6 imperial fluid ounce (4.74 mL) and a tablespoon is 1 ⁄ 2 imperial fl oz (14.21 mL). In both Britain and Canada, cooking utensils commonly come in 5 mL ...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (/ ˌ s ɛr ə ˈ v ɪ s i. iː /) (brewer's yeast or baker's yeast) is a species of yeast (single-celled fungal microorganisms). The species has been instrumental in winemaking, baking, and brewing since ancient times. It is believed to have been originally isolated from the skin of grapes.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast commonly used as baker's yeast. Gradation marks are 1 μm apart.. Baker yeast is the common name for the strains of yeast commonly used in baking bread and other bakery products, serving as a leavening agent which causes the bread to rise (expand and become lighter and softer) by converting the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ...
Nutritional yeast (also known as nooch [4]) is a deactivated (i.e. dead) yeast, often a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, that is sold commercially as a food product.It is sold in the form of yellow flakes, granules, or powder, and may be found in the bulk aisle of natural food stores.
