Sucrose. Regular table sugar is sucrose. It is a double-sugar, or disaccharide. It is composed of one molecule of glucose bonded to one molecule of fructose. Our intestinal cells are unable to absorb sucrose, however. They can absorb glucose and fructose, but not the disaccharide, sucrose.ucrose tastes sweet because the molecule contains a fructose unit. Pure fructose is even sweeter, because it can interact with our taste buds more strongly. Therefore, manufacturers treat the glucose syrup with an enzyme, to produce fructose. [Glucose and fructose can inter-convert readily, even without the enzyme.
