The examples and differences between reducing and non-reducing sugars are given below.

Explanation:

Reducing sugars:

  • These are the carbohydrates that act as reducing agents because of the presence of a free aldehyde or ketone group.
  • They give a positive reaction towards Fehling's test.
  • They include all the monosaccharides.
  • Examples are maltose and lactose.

Non-reducing sugars:

  • These are the carbohydrates that cannot act as the reducing agents because of the absence of a free aldehyde or ketone group.  
  • They give a negative reaction towards Fehling's test.
  • Includes some of the disaccharides and all of the polysaccharides.
  • An example is sucrose.
