orgaaniline ühend, milles mingi mono- või disahhariid (harilikult glükoos) on hapniku, lämmastiku või väävli aatomi abil seotud mittesahhariidiga või monosahhariidiga
any one of a group of compounds consisting of a pyranose sugar residue, such as glucose, linked to a noncarbohydrate residue (R) by a glycosidic bond: the hydroxyl group (–OH) on carbon-1 of the sugar is replaced by –OR
Drooge (v.a marju) ei tohi kuivatada otseses päikesevalguses, vaid selleks ette nähtud ruumis. Eeterlikku õli sisaldavaid drooge on soovitatav kuivatada temperatuuril 30– 40 °C ning 10–15 cm paksuse kihina, tugevatoimelisi aineid sisaldavaid drooge (alkaloidid, glükosiidid) temperatuuril 50 °C ning teisi drooge temperatuuril 40– 60 °C.
Glycosides are widely distributed in plants; examples are the anthocyanin pigments and the cardiac glycosides, such as digoxin and ouabain, which are used medicinally for their stimulant effects on the heart.
