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. Dextrously
