The Difference Between Dextrose Monohydrate And
Anhydrous Dextrose:
1. Different Manufacturing Processes
Dextrose monohydrate
Using starch or starch as raw material, the glucose liquid obtained through liquefaction and saccharification, and then refined, concentrated, cooled, and crystallized is a product containing clean water.
Anhydrous dextrose
Using starch or starch as raw material, the glucose solution is obtained through liquefaction and saccharification, and then refined, concentrated, evaporated, and crystallized.
2. The moisture content is different, and the moisture difference between the two is about 8 points.
