Abstract
This study has been designed to investigate the possible metabolic consequences of maltitol feeding (replacing 1/3 of the dietary carbohydrates) on the fatty acid composition in various body compartments of the rat. The detailed biochemical analysis of the lipid composition rules out the possible interference of this disaccharide on the lipid metabolism, at least with the dosage and duration of treatment used in the experiment.
