Introduction
Dextrose Monohydrate (monohydrate glucose), is a white granular powder that has a unique luster and exudes a natural sweet taste. It is extracted from the starch hydrolysis process and is an important carbohydrate. Dextrose Monohydrate has a moderate sweetness, approximately 70% - 80% that of sucrose. However, it plays a crucial role in energy supply. It can be rapidly absorbed by the human body, converted into glucose and enter the bloodstream, providing the body with instant energy and playing an important role in maintaining the normal physiological functions of the human body and ensuring the smooth progress of metabolism.
Applications
l Food and Beverages: In soft drinks, fruit juices, and sports drinks, it not only serves as a sweetener but also regulates the osmotic pressure of the products, improves the taste, and enhances the overall quality of the products; in baked goods such as bread, cakes, and biscuits, it promotes dough fermentation and improves the texture and color of the products; in jams, jellies, and dairy products, it increases the sweetness and improves the texture, making the products more delicious.
l Pharmaceutical Industry: As an important excipient for pharmaceutical preparations, it is used to make various dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, and syrups; in nutritional supplements and medical infusion products, it serves as a key energy supplement component, providing necessary nutritional support for patients.
l Industrial Fermentation: In the production process of industrial products such as alcohol, amino acids, and organic acids, as the main carbon source for microbial fermentation, it provides sufficient nutrients for the growth and metabolism of microorganisms, promoting the efficient production of industrial products.
