Monohydrate glucose and anhydrous glucose are two forms of glucose, and their differences lie in water content and chemical properties. Glucose monohydrate contains crystalline water, with the chemical formula C6H12O6·H2O, and its water content is approximately 8.3%. Anhydrous glucose, on the other hand, contains no crystalline water. Its chemical formula is C6H12O6 and it has a water content of zero. Due to the difference in moisture content, monohydrate glucose and anhydrous glucose also differ in chemical properties. Monohydrate glucose can lose its crystalline water and transform into anhydrous glucose under heating or drying conditions. In chemical reactions, monohydrate glucose and anhydrous glucose can be converted into each other.

Product application:
Anhydrous glucose and monohydrate glucose are both common forms of glucose. They share some similarities in efficacy, but there are also some differences. The following are their respective functions:
The benefits of anhydrous glucose:
1. Nutritional supplementation: Anhydrous glucose is a source of carbohydrates needed by the human body. Moderate intake can provide energy and participate in the body's metabolism.
2. Blood glucose regulation: Anhydrous glucose reduces hyperglycemic states by promoting insulin secretion or raises hypoglycemic levels when necessary to maintain stable blood glucose concentrations.
3. Prevention of hypoglycemia: Anhydrous glucose can be quickly absorbed by the body and converted into glucose. When the glucose content in the body is low, it can prevent hypoglycemic reactions.
4. Detoxification: Anhydrous glucose has a certain osmotic pressure effect, which helps to eliminate harmful substances from the body.
The benefits of glucose monohydrate:
1. Food-grade glucose monohydrate: Mainly used in the food processing industry and vegetable preservation industry.
2. Pharmaceutical-grade glucose monohydrate: Mainly used as a raw (auxiliary) material for oral pharmaceuticals.
To sum up, anhydrous glucose and monohydrate glucose have different functions. When using them specifically, the choice should be made based on actual needs and the doctor's advice.
