Understanding Osazone Test: A Chemical Test for Detecting Reducing Sugars

The Osazone test is a chemical test used to detect reducing sugars by forming derivatives of carbohydrates with phenyl hydrazine. This test helps in distinguishing different reducing sugars and differentiating between reducing and non-reducing sugars. The principle involves the reaction between carb
