    constituents of many cells and their contents. Carbohydrates are tests by using Molisch’s test and Benedict’s test. Molisch ’s test is a sensitive chemical test for the presence of carbohydrates‚ based on the dehydration of the carbohydrate by sulphuric acid to produce an aldehyde‚ which condenses with two molecules of phenol‚ resulting in a red- or purple-colored compound. Benedict ’s test allows for the detection of the presence of reducing sugars (sugars with a free aldehyde or ketone group). All
