  2. Beer chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_chemistry

    Foam stability is an important concern for the first perception of the beer by the consumer and is therefore the object of the greatest care by the brewers and the barmen in charge to serve draft beer, or to properly pour beer into a glass from the bottle (with a good head retention and without overfoaming, or gushing when opening the bottle).

  3. Sorbitol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorbitol

    Sorbitol (/ ˈ s ɔː (r) b ɪ t ɒ l /), less commonly known as glucitol (/ ˈ ɡ l uː s ɪ t ɒ l /), is a sugar alcohol with a sweet taste which the human body metabolizes slowly. It can be obtained by reduction of glucose, which changes the converted aldehyde group (−CHO) to a primary alcohol group (−CH 2 OH).

  4. Van 't Hoff factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_factor

    For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1. For most ionic compounds dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is equal to the number of discrete ions in a formula unit of the substance. This is true for ideal solutions only, as occasionally ion pairing occurs in solution. At a given instant a small ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sugars

    Corn syrup – sweet syrup produced from corn starch that may contain glucose, maltose and other sugars. Date sugar [1] Dehydrated cane juice [1] Demerara sugar [1] Dextrin [1] – an incompletely hydrolyzed starch made from a variety of grains or other starchy foods. Dextrose [1] – same as glucose, dextrose is an alternative name of glucose

  6. Glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose

    Glucose is a sugar with the molecular formula C 6 H 12 O 6. It is overall the most abundant monosaccharide , [ 4 ] a subcategory of carbohydrates . It is mainly made by plants and most algae during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benedict's_reagent

    Substance in water + 3 mL Benedict's solution, then boil for few minutes and allow to cool. Red, green, or yellow precipitate is obtained Reducing sugar, such as glucose, is present Substance in water + 3 mL Benedict's solution, then boil for few minutes and allow to cool. Solution remains clear or is a little blue Reducing sugar is not present

  8. Dextrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dextrin

    Dextrins are mixtures of polymers of D-glucose units linked by α-(1→4) or α-(1→6) glycosidic bonds. Dextrins can be produced from starch using enzymes like amylases, as during digestion in the human body and during malting and mashing in beer brewing [3] or by applying dry heat under acidic conditions (pyrolysis or roasting).

  9. Intravenous sugar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intravenous_sugar_solution

    D50 – 50% dextrose in water; The percentage is a mass concentration, so a 5% glucose/dextrose solution contains 50 g/L of glucose/dextrose (5 g per 100 ml). This usage is imprecise but widely used, as discussed at Mass concentration (chemistry) § Usage in biology. Glucose provides energy 4 kcal/gram, so a 5% glucose solution provides 0.2 ...
