D(+)-Glucose CAS#50-99-7
Biologically Active Form of Glucose: D(+)-glucose is a biologically active stereoisomer of glucose, making it directly utilizable by living organisms.
Versatile Molecular Forms: It exists in both open-chain (acyclic) and ring (cyclic) forms, with α- and β-isomers, providing flexibility in biochemical processes.
Primary Energy Source: D(+)-glucose serves as the main source of energy in the form of ATP for living organisms.
Naturally Occurring and Readily Available: It is found naturally in fruits and plants and is produced in animals through glycogen breakdown, ensuring wide accessibility and sustainability.
Product Usage
D(+)-glucose is also used therapeutically for fluid and nutrient replacement, available in forms such as glucose syrup and glucose powder. It can be produced through enzymatic hydrolysis of starch, with sources including sugarcane, sugar beet, corn (corn syrup), potatoes, and wheat. Today, large-scale starch hydrolysis is the primary method for commercial glucose production.

D(+)-Glucose CAS#50-99-7
D(+)-glucose, also known as dextrorotatory glucose, is a biologically active stereoisomer of the glucose molecule, with the hydroxyl group (OH) on its bottom chiral carbon positioned to the right. The molecule can exist in both an open-chain (acyclic) and a ring (cyclic) form, with two isomers, α and β. It serves as the primary source of energy in the form of ATP for living organisms. Naturally occurring, D(+)-glucose is found in fruits and other plant parts in its free form, and in animals, it is produced through the breakdown of glycogen in a process called glycogenolysis.
