Requirement:
Chemical: Carbohydrate Testing Reagent, Sulphuric Acid, 0.1N Iodine Solution, Acetic Acid, Phenyl Hydrazine, Sodium Nitrate, Hydrochloric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Distill Water.
Apparatus: Test Tube, Beaker, Water Bath, Test Tube Holder, Glass Rod.
Observation Table:
S. No. | Experiments | Observation | Inference |
---|---|---|---|
1. | Molisch's Test | Violet colour ring between two junction | Carbohydrate Present |
2. | Iodine Test | No change in colour | Mono/ Di saccharide Present |
3. | Benedict’s Test | No characterstic ppt seen | Non-Reducing Sugar Present |
4. 5. | Barfoed's Test Hydrolysis Sample divided in to two part A & B | No ppt formed | Disaccharide present |
6. | Benedict's Test in A part | Green yellow and then Red colour ppt | Reducing Sugar Present (Glucose and Fructose) |
7. | Scliwanoff Test in B part | Cherry red colour | Fructose present |
Result: On the basis of above observation it may found that the given sample of Carbohydrate was Sucrose.

Summary
Carbohydrates are substance that possess a general formula CnH2nOn.
Test for carbohydrates can be performed by preparation of 1% solution.
Hydrolysis:
Hydrolysis is uncontrolled process can be done by addition of HCl conc. and after that netralize by Sod. Carbonate with reference to litmus paper.
Different Reagents used in identification are as:
1. Molisch Reagent
2. Barfoed Reagent
3. Benedict Reagent
4. Scliwanoff Reagnet
5. Fehling A and B and other
Steps included are:
Molisch Test àIodine Test àBenedict Test à Barfoed Test àScliwanoff Test and àOsazone Test
Colours Produced are:
> Violet colour ring between two junction confirms Carbohydate presence.
> Blue and Reddish brown colour indicate the presence of starch or gylcogen respectively by Iodine test and in case of no colour mono or di saccharide may be present.
> Reducing sugar shows Green yellow or Red colour precipitate with Benedict's Test.
> A brick red ppt indicate mono-saccharide presence with Barfoed Reagent.
> Scliwanoff reagent produces cherry red colour i.e. positive for keto sugar.
> Osazone Crystals
- Needle Shape à Glucose/ Fructose
- Sunflower Shape à Maltose
- Cottonball Shape à Lactose
