Main Uses/ Industry : " In the food and beverage industry, dextrose monohydrate is often used as sweeteners in confectionery and baked goods. It is also converted to maltodextrin, a polyol, where it is used as thickening agent and supplement in infant formula milk. In the pharmaceutical industry, dextrose monohydrate is often used in oral rehydration salts and intravenous (IV) fluid as it can be metabolized quickly and can be utilized by the body as energy source. Maltodextrin, polyol of dextrose monohydrate can be used as stabilizer in medicine as well." Approvals : "ISO 9001:2015 ISO 14001:2015 HALAL KOSHER" Cas No : 5996-10-1
