Dextrose (Glucose) – HX-MEDIA – Hexa Biotech

Principle :- Dextrose is utilized as a nutrient in many bacteriological media. The microorganisms have capability to ferment dextrose to produce energy, acids and gas. In fermentations, simple organic end products are formed from the anaerobic dissimilation of glucose. Due to glucose breakdown by enzymatic dehydrogenation reaction to yield Energy in the form of ATP. Glucose is the most common hexose used to study fermentation reactions. The complete hydrolysis of glucose yield sufficient energy for microbial growth. Since dextrose is used as carbon and energy source in many dehydrated media.
