Most sorbitol is made from potato starch, but it is also found in nature, for example in apples, pears, peaches, and prunes. [4] It is converted to fructose by sorbitol-6-phosphate 2-dehydrogenase. Sorbitol is an isomer of mannitol, another sugar alcohol; the two differ only in the orientation of the hydroxyl group on carbon 2. [5]
Sorbitan monopalmitate has been known since at least 1959. [5]Around 2000, SMP was permitted by the EU in bakery products, icings, marmalades, simulations of milk and cream, beverage whiteners, liquid concentrates of fruit and herbs, sorbets, emulsified sauces, food supplements and chewing gum amongst others.
Of California's total plant population, 2,153 species, subspecies, and varieties are endemic and native to California alone, according to the 1993 Jepson Manual study. [4] This botanical diversity stems not only from the size of the state, but also its diverse topographies , climates, and soils (e.g. serpentine outcrops ).
Many different sugars are used as the fuel for rocket candy. The most common fuel is typically sucrose, however, glucose and fructose are sometimes used. As an alternative, sorbitol, a sugar alcohol commonly used as a sweetener in food, produces a propellant with a slower burn rate and is less brittle when made into propellant grains. [5]

The carbohydrate composition in agave syrup depends on the species from which the syrup was made. [1] In A. tequilana (blue agave), the syrup contains some 56% to 60% fructose, 20% glucose, and trace amounts of sucrose, [1] [6] whereas in A. salmiana, sucrose is the main sugar. [1]
