UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Ingredient for many foods,
candies,and drinks

Glucose is considered a simple

carbohydrate that provides four
calories per gram. Having glucose in
foods and drinks is an effective way to
gain weight.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 In Confectionery:
Glucose syrup made is an extremely popular
product in confectionery business. It prevents
crystallisation and in various applications it is used as a
necessary item up to an extent of forty percent.

Since, Glucose syrup is a non-crystallising substance; it

is commonly used in the production of homogenous
confectionery like chocolates and chewing gums. Liquid
glucose tesco ensures good preservative qualities,
enhanced shelf life and smooth texture of the products.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Other foods:
Glucose syrup is used to prevent crystallisation of sugar in
processed foods like canned fruit, jams and jellies. It helps in
preserving food and saves food from getting spoiled and at the same
does not increase the level of sweetness. Liquid glucose sainsburys
plays a good role in enhancing the flavour of food preparation and
masking excessive sweetness.
Being easily digestible, it is an instant source of energy and a
widely used item in the preparation of common syrups. In the baby
foods and baby syrups too glucose is a favoured choice as it is a rich
source of carbohydrates.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 In Ice creams:
Glucose syrup has a significant role to play in ice creams; it prevents
crystallisation of Ice creams, adds a smooth texture and prevents it from
getting melted soon. By preventing crystallisation of sucrose it offers a soft
mouthful, creamy touch and a homogenous sweetness to the ice cream.
Glucose syrup does not add any undesirable taste and liquid glucose
substitute is excellent replacement for expensive non-fat milk solids too.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 In Ice creams:
Glucose powder, when exposed to moisture, reacts
differently from sugar. It doesn't allow water to crystallize,
which is important when making frozen desserts such as ice
cream, custard and sorbet.
Glucose also doesn't recrystallize like regular table
sugar. Glucose powder's role in crystallization and water
retention also keeps products smooth and elastic, while
extending their overall shelf life.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Uses in Baking

Glucose syrup has a wide usage in

bakery products. It adds optimum sweetness,
body and bulk to these foods and is a
preferred choice in cream fillings and pie.
Moreover, its quality of preventing
crystallisation is helpful in enhancing shelf
life, whereas, the hygroscopic and non-
crystallising properties aid in keeping the
food preparations fresh for longer time.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Uses in Meat Processing
Glucose powder makes an excellent preservative and flavoring option
with processed meats. Manufacturers add glucose powder to the brine during
curing -- think sausages, loaves and salami meats -- to improve flavor, texture
and color.
This simple sugar can also help the cured meat stay moist and keep the
product stable on the shelf for an extended period of time. More glucose and
less water signifies that the meat will spoil at a slower rate. Many individuals
also use glucose powder to help encourage browning while cooking meat.

 UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 In tobacco: Apart from adding flavour, glucose syrup lends a
smooth texture to tobacco. It enhances the shelf-life of
chewing tobacco and aids in the dressing of cigarette tobacco
as well.

 In leather products: Glucose syrup adds fineness, glossiness

and proper weightage in the finishing of leather. When used in
tanning, it offers a lustrous look and provides pliability to
finished leather.

 UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Other uses: Glucose syrup helps in the fermentation and
brewing industries and is used as a preservative. Glucose
syrup containing over
90% glucose is used in industrial fermentation,
In adhesives it enhances stability and in cologne and perfumes
it helps in evaporation control. Buffering agent in veterinary
medicine. Nutrition supplement in animal feed. Dextrose is the
most widely used fermentation substrate in production of
various vitamins, amino acids and other organic products.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Pharmaceuticals:
Glucose syrup is extensively used in vitamin-based
tonics and cough syrups. It is also used in cough
lozenges as a prime ingredient. In achieving balanced
sweetness, consistency and good mouth feel Glucose
syrup is used as a principal ingredient. Because
glucose is good to taste buds, manufacturers take
advantage of this so that medicine for kids taste good.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
 Treat Hypoglycemia
(deficiency of glucose in the
bloodstream)
If you have hypoglycemia then
you would be able to take
glucose pills that will be able to
rise your glucose levels in your
blood stream.

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
Glucose is also used to provide
carbohydrate calories to a person who
cannot eat because of illness, trauma, or
other medical condition. Glucose is
sometimes given to people who are sick
from drinking too much alcohol.
Glucose may also be used to treat
hyperkalemia (high levels of potassium in
your blood).

UTILIZATIONS FOR GLUCOSE
A Popular Supplements for Athletes
 runners and weight lifters would be able to take glucose pills to boost there
recovery rate during and after their workout. Glucose provides electrolytes
which help in endurance, therefore results in a better performance from the
athlete. The glucose powder actually provides various nutrients which the
muscles need to go on working and rectify themselves during and following
the workout.
 Glucose is incredibly helpful for athletes because it has a very high
glycemic index. This index signifies that the glucose enters the
blood very fast. When this will happen, the body begins producing
more insulin almost immediately. The insulin is made to increase
the performance and rectify of muscle fibers. The powder can be
very simply dissolved in a glass of water before exercise begins.

 Other Applications
Application of glucose at low concentrations to
grass swards in waste-derived compost can
significantly increase long-term yields

The application of glucose biosensor in studying

the effects of insulin and anti-hypertensive drugs
towards glucose level in brain striatum (2008)
