Dextrine white by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. This is a low-molecular-weight carbohydrate which is a mixture of polymers of D-glucose units linked by -(14) or -(16) glycosidic bonds. The reagent is available as a white powder which is soluble in water. Dextrine can be generated from starch using enzymes like amylases by applying dry heat under acidic conditions. While it is stable under general conditions, this reagent is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.
