Dextrose (Glucose) is a naturally occurring six-carbon monosaccharide (aldohexose). It appears as a colorless or white crystalline powder with a sweet taste. Industrially, it is mainly produced by the acid or enzymatic hydrolysis of starch derived from corn, potatoes and other sources. Featuring high purity, good flowability and excellent water solubility, it is widely used as an important biological culture medium, nutritional supplement and industrial raw material.
