Glukoosilla

Glukoosilla is the Finnish adessive form of glukoosi, meaning glucose. In Finnish, the adessive case is used to indicate the means, material, or accompaniment, so glukoosilla literally translates to “with glucose” or “on glucose.” The term appears mainly in scientific, medical, and nutritional texts to specify that a substance, solution, or treatment contains glucose.

In practical use, glukoosilla describes experimental conditions or formulations where glucose is present as an energy source or substrate. For example, a growth medium or a buffer described as glukoosilla indicates that glucose is a component of the preparation. The opposite situation is typically expressed with a form such as glukoositon, meaning “without glucose,” in contexts where glucose is excluded.

The word is formed from glukoosi plus the -lla suffix, following common Finnish patterns for naming ingredients, components, or features of a preparation. Related terms include glukoosi (glucose) and glukoosiliuos (glucose solution), which refer to the substance itself and to solutions containing glucose, respectively. In medical nutrition and metabolism, glukoosilla-bearing formulations are discussed in relation to energy supply, osmolarity, and glycemic response.
