Jlab Export is a leading Benedict Solution Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Benedict Solution (code EL-CL-12246) is the alkaline copper(II) reagent for reducing sugars: heated with glucose, fructose, maltose or lactose, it throws down copper(I) oxide, and the precipitate runs from green through yellow to brick red as the amount of sugar rises. Food-test and biology practicals rely on it. This solution is made by JLab in Ambala, India.

Reading the Benedict Test
Add the sample to a few millilitres of the reagent in a test tube and stand it in a boiling water bath for a few minutes. No colour change means no reducing sugar; green shows a trace, yellow to orange a moderate amount and brick red a large amount, so the test is semi-quantitative. The sugar reduces copper(II) to copper(I) and is itself oxidised.
Sucrose is a non-reducing sugar and gives no precipitate. Boiled first with dilute hydrochloric acid and then neutralised, it splits into glucose and fructose, and the test turns positive.
