Glucose Analysis Service

Glucose, a monosaccharide, comprises six carbon atoms and an aldehyde group, and is represented by the molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₆. It is predominantly synthesized by plants and most algae through photosynthesis, utilizing water, carbon dioxide, and solar energy. Glucose serves dual purposes in nature: it is utilized by plants to synthesize cellulose for constructing cell walls and by all living organisms for the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a crucial energy molecule. In terms of energy metabolism, glucose stands as the principal energy source across all life forms. For metabolic purposes, glucose is stored as polymers such as starch and amylopectin in plants and as glycogen in animals. Glucose circulates in the blood of animals as blood sugar.
