After the jaguar, cougar, and jaguar left, Zhou Wenwen turned his attention to Hunter, Forerunner, and Geek, and said after thinking for a while.

"Seekers, Forerunners, Geek, your task may be very heavy, because you have to buy glucose and normal saline in human pharmacies and hospitals."

"Glucose and saline?"

"andsaline?"

Hearing the master's words, the hunter with the highest intelligence immediately figured out the master's purpose, but because of this, the hunter was surprised and asked.

"Yes," Zhou Wenwen nodded and replied.

Zhou Wenwen asked for normal saline, in fact, in order to prevent one, what he really needed was glucose.

Glucose, is an organic compound, molecular formula C6H12O6 molecular weight, 180.16.

Glucose is the most widely distributed and most important monosaccharide in nature, and it is a polyhydroxy aldehyde.

Pure glucose is colorless crystal, sweet but not as sweet as sucrose, easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble in ether.

The natural glucose aqueous solution is optically rotated to the right, so it belongs to "dextrose".

Glucose plays an important role in the field of biology. It is the energy source and metabolic intermediate product of living cells, that is, the main energy supply material for living things.

Plants can produce glucose through photosynthesis.

Glucose is also widely used in candy manufacturing and medicine.

A brief history of glucose research:

In 1747, the German chemist Marggraf (S. Marggraf) first isolated glucose in Berlin [2], and in 1749 published this process in "Chemical Experiments on the Extraction of Sucrose from Several Plants Produced in Germany" ( In German "Experienceschimiquesfaitesdansledesseindetirerunveritablesucredediverses, quicroissentdansnoscontrées").

On page 90 it is written: "Wet the raisins with a little water to soften them, then press the juice that has been squeezed out, and after purification and concentration, a sugar is obtained."

"Lesraisinssecs, etanthumectés d'unepetitequantitéd'eau, demanierequ'ilsmollissent, peuventalorsetrepilés, &lesucqu'onenexprime, etantdepuré&épaissi, fournirauneespecedeSucre".

The sugar Magraf discovered was glucose.

However, glucose was not named until 1838, and its English name is derived from the French, which was first coined by French professor Eugène-Péligot (1811-1890).

From the German gleukos - unfermented sweet fruit wine, the prefix gluc- comes from the German glykys, which means sweet, and the suffix -ose indicates its chemical classification, indicating that it is a carbohydrate.

In the same year, Louis Jacques Thénard, Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac, Jean-Baptiste and
