Various sucrose derivatives and a sucrose analogue were enzymatically synthesized on the assumption that structural similarities of the sugars to sucrose would endow them with an ability to inhibit the cariogenicity of sucrose. The effect of these sugars on sucrose-dependent synthesis and adherence of insoluble glucan and on acid fermentation of sucrose by Streptococcus mutans was examined in vitro. Although none of them inhibited the acid fermentation, several sugars not only inhibited the synthesis and adherence of insoluble glucan, but were themselves only slightly fermented as well.
