Alteration of the hydrogen-bond (H-bond) network by trehalose is acknowledged as a bioprotective agent. However, most studies exploring the hydration superiority of the trehalose structure are limited structure are limited by the computational cost or a narrow-range spectrum. In the present study, the structural and dynamical behaviors of the H-bond network of trehalose and maltose solutions were observed and compared with a broadband dielectric spectrum (100 MHz-18 THz) to investigate the influence of the trehalose structure on the bioprotective function. From the relaxation time, the reorientation cooperativity, resonant frequency, and damping constant of water-water vibration, the symmetric structure of trehalose allowed a more significant H-bond strengthening effect and homogeneous aqueous environment. In contrast, the difference in the hydration number between trehalose and maltose was negligible. Thus, the enhanced H-bond strengthening effect and homogeneous aqueous environment owing to the symmetric structure are the essential factors that contribute to the remarkable bioprotective effect of trehalose.
