Dextrose Anhydrous
Description :
Overview of Dextrose Anhydrous
Dextrose Anhydrous is one of the common sugars (monosaccharides) that is widely utilised for food processing and fermentation, pharmaceuticals, and in industrial applications. It's valued due to its superior quality, purity and stability. This makes it an ideal sweetener, energy source, and chemical intermediate.
The chemical formula for Dextrose anhydrous is: C6H12O6. The structure consists of a six-carbon chain with multiple hydroxyl groups. These provide high solubility in water and high reactivity during chemical and biological processes. As it's anhydrous, it has increased shelf life and durability in comparison to its hydrated counterpart.
