The partial hydrolysis of starch slurry by acid or enzyme gives an end product, which is commonly known as Liquid Glucose (Sweetose), Corn Syrup or Glucose. Chemically, Gujarat Ambuja Exports Liquid Glucose is a mixture of the entire spectrum of carbohydrate molecules derived by breaking the long chained molecules of polysaccharides contained in starch slurry. By adjusting the content of the ingredients, Liquid Glucose of various DE (Dextrose Equivalent) can be obtained for varied end uses. Liquid Glucose (Sweetose) is a clear, colorless, viscous solution, making it compatible with the physical properties desired in the end products. Chemically, Liquid Glucose has functional properties such as high fermentability, viscosity, humectancy – hygroscopicity, sweetness, colligative properties and its role in Maillard’s reaction.
