Sucrose intolerance or genetic sucrase-isomaltase deficiency (GSID) is the condition in which sucrase-isomaltase, an enzyme needed for proper metabolism of sucrose (sugar) and starch (e.g., grains), is not produced or the enzyme produced is either partially functional or non-functional in the small intestine. All GSID patients lack fully ...
Sucrase-isomaltase is a bifunctional glucosidase (sugar-digesting enzyme) located on the brush border of the small intestine, encoded by the human gene SI. It is a dual-function enzyme with two GH31 domains, one serving as the isomaltase , the other as a sucrose alpha-glucosidase .
One form, sucrase-isomaltase, is secreted in the small intestine on the brush border. [1] The enzyme invertase , which occurs more commonly in plants, fungi and bacteria, also hydrolyzes sucrose (and other fructosides) but by a different mechanism: it is a fructosidase, whereas sucrase is a glucosidase.

According to a breath alcohol test affidavit, Ross' blood alcohol level was recorded at .330 nearly an hour after the original call was placed. A second breath sample allegedly came in at .318.
Sacrosidase (trade name Sucraid) is a medication used to replace sucrase in people lacking this enzyme. [1] It is available as an oral solution. Sucraid is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the therapy of the genetically determined sucrase deficiency that is part of the Congenital Sucrase-Isomaltase Deficiency (CSID).
