D-Glucose(CAS: 9050-36-6)

D-Glucose, also known as dextrose, is a monosaccharide sugar with the chemical formula C6H12O6. It is a key component of carbohydrates and plays a vital role in biological processes, such as energy production. As a white, crystalline powder, it is highly soluble in water and commonly used in various industries due to its versatile properties.

D-Glucose is widely used in pharmaceuticals as an intravenous solution for energy support, in the food industry as a sweetener and preservative, in industrial applications for fermentation and biofuel production, and in scientific research for studying metabolic processes. Its natural occurrence in plants and biological systems also makes it essential in biochemical studies.

D-Glucose is generally safe when handled properly and used as intended. However, ingestion in large amounts may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, and inhalation or skin contact should be avoided. Safety standards such as OSHA guidelines emphasize proper protective measures during handling to prevent contamination or adverse effects.

D-Glucose should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct light, in airtight containers to maintain stability. It is hygroscopic, so moisture exposure must be prevented. Storage conditions should ensure temperature control below 25°C and humidity levels below 60% to avoid degradation or clumping.
