  2. Dextrose equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dextrose_equivalent

    Glucose (dextrose) has a molecular mass of 180, while water has a molecular mass of 18. For each 2 glucose monomers binding, a water molecule is removed. Therefore, the molecular mass of a glucose polymer can be calculated by using the formula (180*n - 18*(n-1)) with n the DP (degree of polymerisation) of the glucose polymer.

  3. Intravenous sugar solution - Wikipedia

    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 kcal/ml

  4. Maltodextrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maltodextrin

    Maltodextrins are classified by a dextrose equivalent (DE), [5] [6] a number between 3 and 20 that corresponds to the number of free chain ends in a certain sample. A lower DE value means the polymer chains are longer (contain more glucose units) whereas a higher DE value means the chains are shorter. [6]

  5. Sugar - Wikipedia

    This is also called dextrose, or grape sugar because drying grape juice produces crystals of dextrose that can be sieved from the other components. [75] Glucose syrup is a liquid form of glucose that is widely used in the manufacture of foodstuffs. It can be manufactured from starch by enzymatic hydrolysis. [76]

  6. Glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose

    Dextrose monohydrate is the hydrated form of D-glucose, meaning that it is a glucose molecule with an additional water molecule attached. [38] Its chemical formula is C 6 H 12 O 6 · H 2 O . [ 38 ] [ 39 ] Dextrose monohydrate is also called hydrated D-glucose , and commonly manufactured from plant starches.

  7. L-Glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-Glucose

    l-Glucose is an organic compound with formula C 6 H 12 O 6 or O=CH[CH(OH)] 5 H, specifically one of the aldohexose monosaccharides. As the l-isomer of glucose, it is the enantiomer of the more common d-glucose. l-Glucose does not occur naturally in living organisms, but can be synthesized in the laboratory.

    "Simple sugars, including dextrose, fructose, and glucose, appear in foods such as table sugar, honey, and bread." It is impossible for dextrose (corn sugar manufactured from cornstarch) to be found naturally in any food/drug/biologic product. “Dextrose (glucose) is a form of natural sugar that is normally produced by the liver.”

  9. Glucose syrup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_syrup

    Glucose syrup on a black surface. Glucose syrup, also known as confectioner's glucose, is a syrup made from the hydrolysis of starch. Glucose is a sugar. Maize (corn) is commonly used as the source of the starch in the US, in which case the syrup is called "corn syrup", but glucose syrup is also made from potatoes and wheat, and less often from barley, rice and cassava.
