The presence of adonitol sugars, arabinase, arabitol, cellobiose, fructose, galactose, glucose, inositol, lacttol, malttol, maltose, maltotriose, mannitol, mannose,
melezitose, melibiose, rafnose, sorbitol, trehalose, turanose, xylitol, or xylose was not detected [AOAC/FQ-0093].
Lactococcus plantarum, and Lactococcus raffinolactis, these species differ only in
melezitose and sorbitol fermentations.
Large interclone differences in
melezitose secretion in the facultatively ant-tended black bean aphid Aphis fabae.

For the qualification and quantification of the saccharides, the HPLC chromatograms of the samples were compared to those of commercial standards of fructose, glucose, saccharose, turanose, maltose, trehalose, erlose,
melezitose, raffinose, maltotriose and maltotetrose.
Honeydew honey is characterized by a higher concentration of oligosaccharides, mainly trisaccharides
melezitose and raffinose, which usually are not found in blossom honeys [7,8].
The sugars included: D-Xylose, L-Rhamnose, Sucrose, Lactose, Melibiose, Raffinose,
Melezitose, Glycerol, Adonitol, Sorbitol and Mannitol.
Cotton honeydew extract is composed of unusual oligo-saccharides, such as fructose, glucose, inositol,
melezitose, saccharose, trehalose and trehalulose.
To each tube, 5.0 mL of
melezitose internal standard purchased from Sigma Aldrich (St.
