Monosaccharides
Cannot hydrolyzed to simpler units
Monosaccharide
Are hydrates of carbon with molecular formula
Carbohydrates

Keto group
____ and ____ notations are used to describe the configuration of carbohydrates
D, L
What are the two trioses
Glyceraldehyde and dihydroxy acetone
Composed of one sugar units are also known as simple sugar
Monosaccharide
Is composed of two monosaccharide units
Disaccharide
It is usually 2 to 10 monosaccharide units
Oligosaccharide
Are the polymers of the simple sugar usually more than 10 Monosaccharide
Polysaccharides
Is the main type of sugar in the blood and is the major source of energy for the body cells
Glucose
Known as the brain sugar that supports the brain development of infants
Galactose

Fructose
It is present in malt the juice from sprouted barley and other cereal grains
Maltose
Principal sugar that present in milk
Lactose
Is a non-reducing sugar also known as table sugar
Sucrose
A test for the presence of carbohydrates
Moore’s test

A test used to differentiate ketohexoses from aldohexoses
Seliwanoff’s test
It involves the formation of for for all derivatives in the presence of concentrated hydrochloric acid
A test used to specifically detect galactose and lactose in a sample solution
Phloroglucinol HCl test
A test that uses bismuth subnitrate which is reduced to block precipitate bismuth when reacted with reducing sugar
