Product Overview

A dry glucose ingredient for food processing

Dextrose Anhydrous is purified and crystallised D-glucose that contains no water of crystallisation. It provides a dry source of glucose and is used as a nutritive sweetener in a range of food formulations.

Its contribution to sweetness, solids and processing behaviour depends on the complete recipe and production conditions. The exact grade should therefore be reviewed against the finished product, applicable food standard and destination-market requirements.

Dextrose Anhydrous and Dextrose Monohydrate are different commercial forms. Confirm that the requested specification clearly states the anhydrous form.

Ask About This Product
What is dextrose anhydrous?

It is purified and crystallised D-glucose without water of crystallisation. It is commonly used as a nutritive sweetener and dry carbohydrate ingredient in food processing.

Is dextrose the same as glucose?

Dextrose is a common name for D-glucose. “Anhydrous” identifies the form that contains no water of crystallisation.

How does the anhydrous form differ from dextrose monohydrate?

Dextrose monohydrate contains one molecule of water of crystallisation for each molecule of D-glucose. Dextrose Anhydrous contains no water of crystallisation, so the two forms have different specifications and should not be treated as interchangeable without formulation review.

Which documents are available for review?
