Complete Structure Elucidation of New Steviol Glycosides Possessing 9 Glucose Units Isolated from
In our continued effort to discover new diterpene glycoside sweeteners from Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni with a better taste profile than that of rebaudioside M, we have isolated three novel steviol glycosides with 9 glucose units, 3 at the C-13 site of the

Trans-α-glucosylation of stevioside by the mutant glucansucrase enzyme Gtf180-ΔN-Q1140E improves its taste profile [PDF]
The adverse health effects of sucrose overconsumption, typical for diets in developed countries, necessitate use of low-calorie sweeteners. Following approval by the European Commission (2011), steviol glycosides are increasingly used as high-intensity ...
