Glucose (Glc), kan jedhamu kuni monosaccharide (yokan simple sugar) yoo ta'u Biology kessatti akka Carbohydrate bayye barbachissa ta'etti ilallama. Celliin akka madda "energy" fi dallaga bayyee geggesufi kan itti fayyadamu Glucosii dha. Glucosiin waantotta photosynthesis jalla argamanii kessa guddicha yoo ta'u and akka cellular respirationiin prokaryotes fi eukaryotes kessatti jalqabu qarqarra. Maqaan kunni Afaan Greek "glykys" jedhamu irra kan dhuffe yoo ta'u, kunii jechuni immo "mi'ahha" jechu dha. "-Ose" jechuun immo gossa Carbohydrate akka ta'e ibsaa.
Isomerotni lamma kan aldohexose sugarii glucose jedhamani wamamu, haa ta'u malle kaneen kessa tokkichi (D-glucose) qofatti biology kessatti hojjatta. Gossi kuni (D-glucose) dextrose ("dextrose monohydrate") jedhame wamama maqaan kuni immo food industry kessatti bayye fayyadatama. "Mirror-image"iin (garagalli isaa) "molecule" kana L-glucose haa ta'u malee "molecule"iin kuni Celliin hin fayyadatamu.
Glucosiin akka wanna adii (white substance) fi cabbi (solid crystal)tti argama. Akkasumas akka "fesashi" (aqueous solution)ttis ni argama.
