Product Description

Sucrose, also known as Saccharose, is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. It occurs naturally in plants, especially in sugar cane, sugar beet, and fruits, and is one of the most widely used carbohydrates in both industrial and laboratory settings.

In the laboratory, sucrose is valued for its high purity, stability, and non-reactivity under normal conditions. It is used in biochemical research, microbial culture media, analytical chemistry, and pharmaceutical formulations. Industrially, it serves as a sweetening agent, preservative, and energy source in food and beverage manufacturing.
