Are stereoisomers that differ in the 3-D arrangment of groups at the anomeric carbon of an acetal, ketal, hemiacetal, or hemiketal group. You can use alpha or beta to identify anomers. Anomeric carbons are carbon #1.
Alpha is down and beta is up!! |

Is either and alpha or beta -OH group of cyclic monosaccharides that can form links with one another.
2 alcohols are dehydrated which knocks off H20 and makes ether linkage. Oxygen bridge is what links the sugars. |
