  Glucose \Glu"cose`\, n. [Gr. ? sweet. Cf. Glycerin.]
     [1913 Webster]
     1. A variety of sugar occurring in nature very abundantly, as
        in ripe grapes, and in honey, and produced in great
        quantities from starch, etc., by the action of heat and
        acids. It is only about half as sweet as cane sugar.
        Called also dextrose, grape sugar, diabetic sugar,
        and starch sugar. See Dextrose.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. (Chem.) Any one of a large class of sugars, isometric with
        glucose proper, and including levulose, galactose, etc.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     3. The trade name of a sirup, obtained as an uncrystallizable
        reside in the manufacture of glucose proper, and
        containing, in addition to some dextrose or glucose, also
        maltose, dextrin, etc. It is used as a cheap adulterant of
        sirups, beers, etc.
        [1913 Webster]

  Dextrose \Dex"trose`\ (d[e^]ks"tr[=o]s`), n. [See Dexter.]
     (Chem.)
     A sirupy, or white crystalline, variety of sugar, C6H12O6
     (so called from turning the plane of polarization to the
     right), occurring in many ripe fruits, and also called
     glucose. Dextrose and levulose are obtained by the
     inversion of cane sugar or sucrose, and hence the mixture is
     called called invert sugar. Dextrose is chiefly obtained by
     the action of heat and acids on starch, and hence called also
     starch sugar. It is also formed from starchy food by the
     action of the amylolytic ferments of saliva and pancreatic
     juice.
     [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: The solid products are known to the trade as grape
           sugar; the sirupy products as glucose, or mixing
           sirup. These are harmless, but are only about half as
           sweet as cane sugar or sucrose.
