Glucose is a six-carbon monosaccharide sugar, and a main source of chemical energy for cell functions in living organisms. Glucose solutions support a variety of research processes involving the maintenance of cultured cells and fermentation procedures, and as an energy source with a wide variety of applications. It is required for glycosylation, and formation of glycans that provide structure to cells. This formulation is made at a 40% concentration of glucose in WFI-Quality water.
