Glucose Tablets for Glucose Projects??

Post by deleted-321392 »

I've been trying to find 4g glucose tablets for this science project: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... ml#summary

However, I was wondering whether just regular glucose tablets for diabetes patients from the pharmacy was okay to use? (They have a bunch of other ingredients other than glucose in those tablets)

To clarify the answer for me, please give me a link to where you can find 4g glucose tablets for science projects!

Thank you!

Hi,

There is a link to where you can purchase glucose tablets in the Materials section of the project:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0044Q ... B0044QI2P6

It looks like it is okay if the tablet contains some other ingredients, as long as it contains 4g of glucose.

Good luck!
