“…More recently, Peat, Whelan & Hinson (1952) have shown that five #-linked glucose disaccharides can be obtained by incubating 60 % glucose with almond emulsin over a period of 5 weeks. Aliphatic and aromatic alcohols, too, can condense with glucose in the presence of P-glucosidases (Bourquelot & Bridel, 1913;Veibel, 1936;Vintilescu, Ionescu & Kizyk, 1934, 1935aVintilescu, Ionescu & Solomon, 1935).…”
