Is High Fructose Corn Syrup a completely different chemical from regular fructose and if so what is the chemical formula?
High fructose corn syrup, HFCS, is a blend of two simple sugars, fructose and glucose. Both sugars have the same chemical formula, C6H12O6, but have unique chemical structures. "Regular" fructose, found in fruit or sucrose ( table sugar) has the same chemical formula. Sucrose, however, is a disaccharide of fructose and glucose which means that the fructose and glucose are chemically linked. Therefore, the ratio of the fructose to glucose in sucrose is precisely 50:50, 1:1, and the %fructose cannot exceed 50%. This is not the case with HFCS. Depending on the needs of the manufacturers the %fructose can range from 42% to 90%. Dairy and baked products use 42%, Pepsi and Coke use 55% fructose, and low-cal products may contain as much as 90% fructose.
