How To Sterilize Glucose Solution?
how to sterilize glucose solution?
– Sterilize by filter sterilization (there are filters for large volumes in the storage room) OR.
– by sterilizing by Autoclaving at 110C for 10 min (short program to avoid caramelization which can affect back ground fluorescence)
How do you sterilize sucrose solution?
Table of Contents
Solutions can be autoclaved for 15-20 minutes at a maximum of 121 °C. There will be some hydrolysis to glucose and fructose, depending in part on how rapidly the autoclave comes to the required temperature and pressure. Care must be taken to prevent solutions from caramelizing.
Why glucose is sterilized separately?
As the autoclaving of a sugar together with other nutrient components enhances its degradation with the associated formation of toxic products, it is advisable to autoclave it separately from other medium components.

Can you filter sucrose?
You can use a filter 0.2 µm for plastic syringe next to a flame or under biosafety hood or under laminar flow hood to avoid contamination to filter your buffer containing 8-10% sucrose in a pre-sterilised bottle.
Can sugar be autoclaved?
What Cannot autoclaved?
As a general rule of thumb, you CANNOT autoclave materials that are contaminated with solvents, radioactive materials, volatile or corrosive chemicals, or items that contain mutagens, carcinogens, or teratogens.N
