Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Not classified as hazardous. High dust concentrations may be combustible.
Yes. Dextrose is the name given to the naturally occurring form of glucose (D-glucose) found in plants.
Monohydrate contains one water molecule per glucose molecule (~9% water). Anhydrous contains no water and is more concentrated, used where water content must be minimal.
Only the 'Injectable Grade' which is tested for pyrogens and endotoxins is suitable for IV drips. Standard Food Grade is NOT safe for injection.
It provides a source of fermentable sugar for yeast and promotes the 'Maillard reaction', giving bread a nice golden-brown crust.
