Sucrose = table sugar. You can buy "corn sugar" intended for brewing, which has been refined into pure glucose. Fructose ... I'm not sure where you can get this in a refined state. Agave nectar is supposed to be 90% or so fructose, with some glucose. "High-fructose corn syrup" is only 50% or so fructose.

comment Why can food be left out to cool (140F to 40F in < 6h) but not to defrost?
I think it's a combination of this, and the higher initial bacterial count. This especially applies to frozen raw meat. The surface of the meat, where the bacteria count will usually be higher, reaches the danger zone fairly quickly and stays there for the majority of the defrosting time.
