Glucose is a type of monosaccharide, not a disaccharide. Disaccharides are made up of two monosaccharides bonded together, so some disaccharides have glucose as a component. Sucrose for example is made up of a glucose molecule and a fructose molecule, and Maltose is made up of two glucose molecules.

∙ 15y agoThe answer to this questiion depends on the definition of a glycoside.
IUPAC defines a glycoside as a sugar bonded at carbon atom number 1 (the anomeric carbon) to another group. If the other group is also a sugar (as in a disacharide) this would make disaccharides glycosides.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycoside
However many people specify that the other group bonded to the sugar must be a non-sugar. This would rule out the disaccharides.

Organic chemistry, biochemistry, carbohydrate, disaccharide and fruit sugar.
What is 2C12H22O11?
It is a carbohydrate... a Disaccharide. Example: sucrose
Is water a disaccharide?
Water is not a disaccharide. Water is H2O, and a dissacharide, which is a carbohydrate, is exemplified by something like table sugar, which has C12H22O11 as its chemical formula. Interestingly, some disaccharides are formed from a pair of monosaccharides by the removal of a water molecule through condensation.
Does sucrose have a charge?
Yes, sucrose (a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose with the molecular formula C12H22O11) commonly known as table sugar, contains glucose.
Sucrose table sugar C12H22O11 is a disaccharide formed when?
yes table sugar is a disaccharide.
What is surcose?
A sugar, or disaccharide. Also known as table sugar.

What kind of carbohydrate is in a bowl of sugar?
Table sugar is a disaccharide called sucrose.
When glucose and frutose join together what do they form?
Sucrose, which is used as table sugar.
What are the disaccharide sugars that are present in the diet?
The disaccharide sugars present in the diet are maltose (a product of the digestion of starch), sucrose (table sugar), and lactose (the sugar in milk).
Is table sugar a simple sugar?
No "Table sugar" is called in chemistry saccharose or sucrose; the chemical formula is C12H22O11. This is a disaccharide, not a simple (monosaccharide) sugar.
Double sugar formed from the combination of two simple sugars?
Sucrose, which is table sugar, is a disaccharide composed of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose chemically combined. Maltose is a disaccharide composed of two glucose monosaccharides chemically combined.
Is sucrose a steroid?
Sucrose is not a steroid, it is table sugar. It is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose.
