                        2. Examples
                          1. Glucose+Glucose=Maltose
                            1. Glucose+Fructose=Sucrose
                              1. Glucose+Galatcose=Lactose
                            2. Reducing Sugars
                              1. All mono and some disaccharides are reducing Eg Maltose
                                1. Benedict's Test
                                  1. Heat Benedict's Solution to a test sample in a water bath for 5 mins
                                    1. If present then red precipitate formed
                                    2. Filter solution and weigh precipitate or remove precipitate and use a colorimeter to measure absorbance of BR
