    CRC Sugar Industry innovation through biotechnology : final report 2B8
    (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2010) Anne Rae, A; Hodoniczky, J
    Sugarcane has a highly effective carbohydrate biosynthetic and storage metabolism that has facilitated its use for the production of sucrose. Sugars are increasingly seen as low-cost, renewable organic resources which can be modified to produce food ingredients and industrial raw materials. For the sugar industry, alternative sugars offer a means of diversification in an area close to the existing core business. However a major restriction to development of alternative products has been ownership of enabling intellectual property by third parties. This project aimed to identify alternative sugars with desirable commercial properties and capture the IP to enable their production.
