• Glycosidic bondNarrower topic: A monosaccharide supplies the anomeric carbon at one end of a glycosidic linkage.

• SucroseNarrower topic: Sucrose is assembled from two monosaccharides.

• CaramelizationNarrower topic: Glucose and fructose are the simple sugars that feed many caramelization pathways.

• CarbohydrateBroader topic: Monosaccharides are the basic units from which larger carbohydrates are built.

• FructoseNarrower topic: Fructose is a single sugar unit, the defining feature of this carbohydrate family.

• RiboseNarrower topic: Ribose is a single-unit sugar and a building block for larger biomolecules.

• AldoseNarrower topic: Aldoses are one structural class of monosaccharide.

• DisaccharideNarrower topic: Disaccharides form when two of these units are joined.

• SugarNarrower topic: Glucose and fructose are monosaccharides, the simplest members of the sugar class.

• ThreoseNarrower topic: Threose is one sugar unit, not a chain of linked sugars.

• RhamnoseNarrower topic: Rhamnose is a monosaccharide that serves as a building block within larger carbohydrates.

• AlluloseNarrower topic: Allulose is a single-unit sugar, despite its uncommon metabolic fate.

• Norman HaworthBroader topic: Haworth’s structural studies focused on simple sugars such as glucose.
