Dextrose

Molecular formula/Structural formula:C6H12O6

 

Properties:Glucose is the most widely distributed in nature and the most important of a kind of simple sugars, it is a kind of hydroxy aldehyde.Pure glucose colorless crystals, have sweet sweet as sucrose (the average person can't taste sweet), soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble in ether.

 

Application:

1. The added heat energy and body fluids, used to eat a lot of fluid is insufficient or lost due to a variety of causes, such as vomiting, diarrhea, seriously big blood loss, etc.), total parenteral nutrition, hunger ketosis.

2. Hypoglycemia.

3. Hyperkalemia.In combination with insulin can promote by potassium transfer into the cell.

4. The hypertonic solution used as dehydrating agent, can be used for brain edema, pulmonary edema and reduce intraocular pressure, often with mannitol and dehydration medicine combined application.

5. Employ peritoneal dialysis fluid

 

Storage and transportation:In dry conditions, glucose, has a good stability, aqueous solution by high pressure sterilization.Overheating can be led to a decline in solution PH value and caramelization.

Bulk finished product should be in a dry, low temperature store in airtight container.

Metal reducing agent.Titration of boric acid complex formation.Trace analysis.The determination of whole blood glucose.Can be directly absorbed by the body.
