Labbox D(+)-Glucose, anhydrous EPR
This high-purity pure substance enables precise sugar determinations and is an important component for reliable analyses, especially in demanding laboratory environments. As it is available in anhydrous form, it allows extremely precise dosing and at the same time provides a stable basis for a wide range of applications in research, quality control and industrial processes. Compared to similar materials, it impresses with its minimal hygroscopicity and excellent purity, which effectively reduces unwanted side reactions.
High-quality properties for precise analyses
The product is primarily characterised by its very low moisture absorption. This factor increases the service life and reduces fluctuations in the measured values. Thanks to the gentle production process, the molecule remains sensitive but at the same time durable enough for a wide range of applications. Researchers and laboratory specialists who need a reliable substance for quantifying sugar content will find a solution here that is also convincing in sensitive areas such as pharmaceutical development or food analysis.
The molecular weight of 180.16 g/mol also plays an important role, especially in control-intensive laboratory environments, as it can be used for precise calculations. The CAS number (50-99-7) and the EC number (200-075-1) are unique identifiers for research and documentation, enabling smooth integration into existing laboratory information systems. Various certifications also prove the consistent quality of the latest batches. This increases the reliability of every measurement, even when complex procedures or sensitive samples are used.
A particular strength of the substance is its suitability for recurring test runs without the need for extensive maintenance. Laboratories that need to achieve reproducible results in glucose assays, for example, benefit from this stability. Particularly in the case of strict quality regulations - for example in process monitoring or the release of end products - anhydrous glucose proves to be a superior basis for valid and reproducible results at all times. As it is practically free of residual moisture, typical storage conditions of 15 to 25 °C and a dry environment guarantee virtually unchanged quality in the long term.- Molecular weight: 180.16 g/mol

Thanks to its purity, the substance can be easily integrated into a wide range of processes, whether in microbiological culture media, enzymatic analyses or standardised reference solutions. As no conspicuous hygiene measures beyond the usual laboratory hygiene are required, the organisational effort for storage, handling and disposal remains manageable. Especially where stable base materials of the highest purity are required, anhydrous glucose proves to be a reliable pillar in the analytical workflow.
Certifications and standards
The comprehensive quality assurance is based on current European directives and national regulations. Packaging and labelling are designed in accordance with standards so that all requirements are met during internal audits or external inspections. Laboratories that work according to ISO standards in particular rely on seamless batch traceability. This is ensured by clear labelling so that the history of each unit produced can be viewed more transparently if required. In addition, the substance is safe in terms of safety, as no additional hazard pictograms or warnings are required.
Examples of use
- Food control: As a benchmark for determining the sugar content in soft drinks, chocolate products and baked goods
- Pharmaceutical research: For precise enzyme assays or drug testing where a defined amount of glucose is essential
- Biotechnological processes: For controlling fermentation processes when microorganisms are specifically supplied with glucose
- Industrial quality control: When validating tank or container cleaning to ensure defined final concentrations in production lines
