Dextrose Monohydrate Overview
Dextrose Monohydrate, also known as Glucose Monohydrate or D-Glucose Monohydrate, is a simple carbohydrate obtained commercially from the hydrolysis of starch. It is generally supplied as a white crystalline powder with a mildly sweet taste and good water solubility.
It is used in food processing because it provides sweetness, contributes to browning during heating and supports product formulation. Its functional properties make it suitable for applications in bakery products, confectionery, beverages and other food preparations.
