Abstract
The metabolism of octyl β-D-[U-14C]glucoside, [1-14C]dodecyl β-D-maltoside and [1-14C]hexadecyl β-D-glucoside was studied after oral administration to mice. The β-glycosidic bond was rapidly hydrolyzed in intestine and liver. The cleavage products, sugars and long-chain alcohols, entered the pathways of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. It appears that alkyl β-glycosides are suitable as additives in food and feed.Keywords
