Solutions of glucose are used as diluents for drugs in various drug infusions. When sterilized by heat small amounts of the substance 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-HMF) is produced from glucose. At a hospital ward such infusions may be exposed to... Read More about Formation and reactivity of free radicals in 5-hydroxymethyl-2- furaldehyde – the effect on isoprenaline photostability.
