Application
Dextrose monohydrate has been used
- as a component of dielectrophoretic buffer for conductivity measurments
- for the administration into rats for Intraperitoneal Glucose Tolerance Test (IPGTT)
- as a component of Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) for the cultivation of osteoblasts
Biochem/physiol Actions
Dextrose or glucose is an essential metabolite for brain and muscle cells. It is involved in majority of pathways and the levels are fined tuned by insulin hormone. Dextrose is majorly used in cell culture and high levels are detrimental, attenuating mesenchymal stem cell proliferation.
