The hydration and taste behaviour of glucose and fructose in aqueous ethanolammonium acetate solutions were investigated by measuring volumetric properties. Density and speed of sound were measured at four different temperatures. Apparent and partial molar volumes, apparent specific compressibility, apparent specific volume, transfer volumes, and hydration numbers were determined from the measured density and speed of sound data. Positive transfer properties of saccharides from water to aqueous ethanolammonium acetate solutions suggested the dominance of hydrophilic-ionic interactions. However, such interactions weakened with incremental concentrations of ethanolammonium acetate. The transfer properties increased in the order: glucose > fructose, indicating stronger interactions between glucose and ethanolammonium acetate. The apparent specific volume and apparent specific isentropic compressibility values for monosaccharides in water and in aqueous ethanolammonium acetate were found to fall within the sweet taste modality.
