    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosaccharide

    This gives rise to a number of isomeric forms, all with the same chemical formula. For instance, galactose and glucose are both aldohexoses, but have different physical structures and chemical properties. The monosaccharide glucose plays a pivotal role in metabolism, where the chemical energy is extracted through glycolysis and the citric acid ...

    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

  7. Maltodextrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maltodextrin

    Resistant maltodextrin and dextrin products are composed of non-digestible oligosaccharides of glucose molecules that are joined by digestible linkages and non-digestible α-1,2 and α-1,3 linkages." [8] The chemical is of greater structural complexity than a digestible maltodextrin. The two families of maltodextrins have little in common ...

  8. 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.

  9. Dextran - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dextran

    Dextran is a complex branched glucan (polysaccharide derived from the condensation of glucose), originally derived from wine. IUPAC defines dextrans as "Branched poly-α-d-glucosides of microbial origin having glycosidic bonds predominantly C-1 → C-6". [1] Dextran chains are of varying lengths (from 3 to 2000 kilodaltons).
