D-Glucose(CAS#58367-01-4)
Introduction
Glucose, chemically known as D-glucose, is an important simple sugar compound. It is an organic compound.Glucose has the following properties:Appearance and Properties: Glucose is a colorless crystalline or white crystalline solid with a sweet taste.Solubility: Glucose is highly soluble in water and can also be dissolved in organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol.Optical properties: Glucose is optical rotation, with optical isomers, right-handed or left-handed optical rotation properties.Glucose is widely used, such as:Biotechnology: Glucose is used as a nutrient component in cell culture media for energy supply during cell culture.There are mainly the following methods for making glucose:Extract glucose from starch or sucrose.Glucose is produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose or other polysaccharides.Chemical synthesis method uses a series of chemical reactions to synthesize glucose.Safety Information on Glucose: Here are some things to look out for:Dosage: Moderate consumption of glucose is safe, but excessive intake may lead to an increase in blood sugar, especially in diabetics.Allergic reactions: Some people may be allergic to glucose, which may cause allergic reactions such as skin redness and shortness of breath.Storage: Glucose should be stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place, avoiding contact with strong oxidants and acidic substances.
Application
D-Glucose (Dextrose, CAS 58367-01-4) is a high-purity, natural monosaccharide and primary energy source. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, it serves as a key excipient, tablet binder, isotonic agent in IV fluids, and nutrient supplement to treat hypoglycemia. As a fermentation substrate, it is essential for producing bioethanol, antibiotics, amino acids, organic acids, and bioplastics. In food technology, it acts as a natural sweetener, humectant, and Maillard reaction agent for texture and browning in baked goods, confections, and sports beverages. D-Glucose also functions as a cosmetic humectant and skin conditioner, a buffering agent for pH stabilization, and a carbon source in cell culture media.
