Description:

Benedict’s Solutions 500ML

Benedict’s Solution is a laboratory reagent used for research and analysis. It serves as a qualitative indicator of the presence of reducing sugars, such as glucose and fructose, providing an estimate of sugar concentration in a sample.

Composition:

• Copper(II) sulfate
• Sodium carbonate
• Sodium citrate

How It Works:

Benedict’s Solution reacts with reducing sugars, which contain free aldehyde or ketone groups, causing a color change based on sugar concentration.

1. Add Benedict’s Solution to the sample.
2. Heat the mixture.
3. Observe the color change:
   • Blue: No reducing sugar present.
   • Green: Low concentration.
   • Yellow/Orange: Moderate concentration.
   • Brick-red: High concentration (formation of copper(I) oxide precipitate).

This test is widely used in food science, biochemistry laboratories, and medical diagnostics, including the detection of glucose in urine samples.
