Description

Application

α-D-Glucose is used:

• As a reducing agent in the preparation superparamagnetic ferrous oxide (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles and silver nanocrystals.
• As an additive for the formation of isoporous polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) diblock copolymer membranes.
• For glycosylation of cell-penetrating poly(disulfide)s (CPDs) with improved solubility to achieve multifunctional cellular uptake.
• As a precursor in the synthesis of metal/carbon nanohybrids under hydrothermal conditions.
