This trisaccharide, also called melitose or melitriose, occursin cotton seed, Australian manna and in the molasses fromthe preparation of beet sugar. It is dextro-rotatory, does notreduce Fehlings solution and is only partially fermentableby yeast. Raffinose may be hydrolyzed by weak acids the same as thepolysaccharides are hydrolyzed, the products being dextroseand melibiose; further hydrolysis of the melibiose yields dex-trose and galactose. POLYSACCHARIDES, (C6H1005)x. In general the polysaccharides are amorphous bodies, a few,however, are crystallizable. Through the action of certain 2 2 PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY. enzymes or weak acids the polysaccharides may be hydrolyzedwith the formation of monosaccharides. As a class the poly-saccharides are quite insoluble and are non-fermentable untilinverted. By inversion is meant the hydrolysis of disaccharideor polysaccharide sugars to form monosaccharides, as indi-cated in the
