Abstract
The invention relates to a soluble glucose polymer predominantly composed of 1-6 bonds, having a content of reducing sugars of less than 0.5%, as well as a content of products of mollecular weight less than or equal to 182 g, of less than 1%. The invention also relates to the process for preparing this glucose polymer, consisting in subjecting a glucose polymer to a hydrogenation stage and to a molecular sieving state so as to remove the products of molecular weight less than or equal to 182 g.
