Abstract

Conditions were developed for titrimetric quantitative determination of some reducing sugars such as glucose, galactose, fructose, lactose, maltose and inverted sucrose with alkaline ferricyanide as an oxidizing agent using nickel(II) sulphate as catalyst and its dimethylglyoxime complex as an indicator. The reaction between
glucose and ferricyanide has been found to correspond to a definite
stoichiometry. The products obtained by the oxidation of glucose.
are isolated and identified. The present proposed method is successfully
applied to the determination of lactose in milk and sucrose
content in commercial cane sugar products.
