General description
D-(+)-Glucose is a monosaccharide which is the main source
of energy in the form of ATP for living organisms.[1] The effect of adding
glucose as a supplement to the infection media of Cryptosporidium
parvum oocysts has been studied.[2] The polymer-bound glucose
template has been demonstrated to be useful in the multi-step parallel
synthesis of various compounds.[3]
Application
D-(+)-Glucose has been used as a standard for the estimation
of total sugar in hydrolyzed starch by phenol-sulfuric acid method.[4]
It has been used in the preparation of the following liquid media for culturing
yeast cells:[5]
- CM
glucose broth minus HIS (histidine)
- CM
glucose broth minus URA (uracil)
- CM
glucose broth minus TRP (tryptophan)
Preparation Note
The material may produce a yellowish solution if prepared at
a higher concentration than 2 g + 15mL.
