glucose
  • vees lahustuv magus kristalne aine, monosahhariid
    Good to know
    • Glükoosi leidub looduses nii vabalt kui ka polüsahhariidide (sahharoosi, glükogeeni, tärklise, tselluloosi ja dekstraani) koostises. Vaba glükoosi on palju viinamarjades, mees, veres ja viljades. Glükoos osaleb ainevahetuses, ta annab organismile energiat.
  • a white crystalline monosaccharide sugar that has several optically active forms, the most abundant being dextrose: a major energy source in metabolism
glükoos
Usage examples
  • Monosahhariidide ehk lihtsuhkrute molekulis on ahelana 3–10 süsinikuaatomit. Tuntuimad monosahhariidid on glükoos ja fruktoos.

C6H12O6 formula
glucose
Usage examples
  • A monosaccharide, glucose occurs in uncombined form in fruit juices and in blood and cellular fluids, and in combination in polysaccharides (e.g. cellulose, starch, glycogen), oligosaccharides (e.g. sucrose), and glycosides.
Good to know
  • The terms glucose, sugar, dextrose, and d-dextrose, are not interchangeable; for example, dextrose and d-dextrose are not used to identify blood glucose or sugar.

  • monosahhariid, mis esineb vabana puuviljades ja mees ning on sahharoosi ehk roosuhkru üheks komponendiks
  • a monosaccharide with the same basic formula as glucose (C6H12O6) found in sweet fruits and honey
fruktoos preferred
Usage examples
  • Suhkrutoodeteks loetakse poolvalge suhkur, valge suhkur ehk suhkur, ekstra valge suhkur, suhkrulahus, invertsuhkrulahus, invertsuhkrusiirup, glükoosisiirup, kuivatatud glükoosisiirup, glükoos ehk glükoosmonohüdraat või veevaba glükoos ja fruktoos.
puuviljasuhkur
levuloos
fructose preferred
Usage examples
  • Fructose, along with glucose, occurs in fruits, honey, and syrups; it also occurs in certain vegetables. It is a component, along with glucose, of the disaccharide sucrose, or common table sugar.
fruit sugar
Usage examples
  • Sugar is a generic term for a category of carbohydrate compounds known as sucrose, or saccharose (C12H22O11). A group of related compounds are corn sugar (called glucose or dextrose), fruit sugar (fructose or levulose), milk sugar (lactose), and malt sugar (maltose).
laevulose
Good to know
  • Formerly, the form of glucose n. which is lævo-rotatory to polarized light; now, the naturally occurring (lævo-rotatory) form of fructose, d(—)-fructose.
