Glucose isomer models
Glucose isomer models. Molecular models of the glucopyranose form of glucose. Glucose (C6H12O6) is a hexose sugar. Glucopyranose has a five carbon ring and an additional asymmetric carbon atom. Carbon atoms are black, hydrogen are white, and oxygen are red. The placement of the hydroxyl group (OH) determines whether the isomer is alpha or beta-glucose. Glucose is found in many plants and is a normal constituent of blood. It is widely used in the confectionary industry as a sweetener

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular models of glucose isomers, specifically the glucopyranose form. Glucose, a hexose sugar with the chemical formula C6H12O6, plays a vital role in various biological processes. The glucopyranose structure features a five-carbon ring and an additional asymmetric carbon atom. In this image, carbon atoms are depicted as black spheres while hydrogen atoms appear as white ones and oxygen atoms are represented by red spheres. The positioning of hydroxyl groups (OH) determines whether the isomer is alpha or beta-glucose. Glucose can be found naturally in numerous plants and serves as a normal constituent of blood. Its significance extends beyond biology; it also holds great importance in the confectionery industry where it is widely used as a sweetener. The ball-and-stick model beautifully illustrates the structural complexity of glucose and its organic composition. This photograph not only highlights the elegance of chemistry but also emphasizes how molecules like glucose play fundamental roles in biochemical processes. By capturing these molecular structures with precision, Science Photo Library provides us with an opportunity to appreciate the intricacies hidden within our world at a microscopic level. It reminds us that even seemingly simple substances like sugar have complex underlying structures that contribute to their properties and functions.
