Saccharification is any event wherein a monosaccharide molecule remains intact after becoming unbound to another saccharide that it was attached to. [1][2] Amylases and brush border enzymes within the small intestine are able to perform exact saccharification through enzymatic hydrolysis. [3] Through thermolysis, saccharification can also occur as a transient result, amongst many other possible effects, during caramelization. [4]
