Dextrose Glucose

Dextrose commonly called Glucose is widely used as an energy supplement for the body. The chemical D-glucose is sometimes referred to as dextrose. Glucose is produced commercially via the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch, mostly available in monohydrate form. Many crops can be used as the source of getting dextrose starch. Crops like Maize, rice, wheat, cassava, corn husk and sago are all used in various parts of the world. It is mostly available in both monohydrate and anhydrous form.

Most commercial glucose occurs as a component of invert sugar, a roughly 1:1 mixture of glucose and fructose. Glucose has approximately 75% the sweetness of sucrose (table sugar).
