 Dextrose monohydrate , also known as glucose hydrate, is the 1 common carbohydrate. It has a wide range of applications, including food processing, pharmaceuticals and biochemical.

Food industry: Glucose monohydrate, as one of the natural sugars, has a sweet taste and can be used as a sweetener in food and beverages. It is widely used in baking, beverage, pastry, ice cream and other food production, to provide sweetness and taste for food. In addition, it can also be used as a leavening agent. When fermented with yeast, it will produce carbon dioxide gas, which promotes the expansion and fermentation of the dough and provides a soft texture. At the same time, the glucose monohydrate can also prevent the crystallization and agglomeration of sugar in food, and improve the quality and stability of the product.

Pharmaceutical industry: Dextrose monohydrate can be used as an excipient in pharmaceutical processes, for example as a filler in tablets and capsules, to provide volume and stability to the drug. It can also be used to make oral rehydration fluids and oral nutritional supplements to provide energy and carbohydrate supplements. In the tanning industry, dextrose monohydrate is also used as a reducing agent to improve the quality of leather.

Bioengineering: Glucose monohydrate (C6H12O6 · H2O) is the 1 crystalline form of glucose and the 1 commonly used carbon source. It can be used in the culture medium of bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms. It provides energy and carbon sources for microorganisms and promotes cell growth and metabolism. When microorganisms such as bacteria, yeasts, and fungi are cultured, glucose monohydrate is added to the medium as a carbon source.

As the 1 commonly used carbon source, glucose monohydrate is widely used in microbiology, cell culture and biological laboratory research. It is not only used in regular media, but also can be used in the preparation of specific media to meet the needs of different microorganisms.

Features: Sweetness and solubility: Glucose monohydrate has a sweet taste, good solubility, can be quickly dissolved in water, easy to use. High-efficiency energy source: Glucose monohydrate is the 1 fast-released carbohydrate that can provide the body with an efficient energy source. Safety and stability: Dextrose monohydrate, as the 1 natural sugar, is widely recognized as a safe food ingredient and pharmaceutical excipient. It has good stability and can maintain its quality under appropriate storage conditions. Safety: Glucose monohydrate is widely regarded as a safe food ingredient and pharmaceutical excipient, but excessive intake may lead to elevated blood sugar and other related metabolic problems. When using glucose monohydrate, the amount of use should be reasonably controlled in accordance with relevant regulations and guidance, and the correct operation method should be followed.
