General description: | Anthrone has the ability to reduce aldehyde containing reducing sugars such as streptose and N-acetyl glucosamine present in streptomycin, into acids. It develops a red- violet color. Therefore, it is used to determine streptomycin quantitatively. Anthrone has been used to detect carbohydrate containing lipids and to measure sugar content such as sucrose and trehalose in the liquid medium. |
General description: | Anthrone is a planar tricyclic aromatic ketone. |
