Summary

N-Bromosuccinimide has been employed as a reagent for the determination of glucose, galactose, and xylose. The reactions are carried out at room temperature for 15 minutes. The errors involved are legs than ± 6% at the mg level. The time required for a complete determination is 45 minutes and the only standard solution required is sodium thiosulfate.

Zusammenfassung

N-Bromsuccinimid wurde als Reagens für die Bestimmung von Glukose, Galaktose und Xylose verwendet. Die Umsetzungen wurden in 15 Minuten bei Zimmertemperatur durchgeführt. Der Fehler beträgt im Milligrammbereich weniger als ± 6%. Für eine vollständige Bestimmung benötigt man 45 Minuten. Die einzig erforderliche Standardlösung ist Natriumthiosulfat.
