To test for the presence of reducing sugars, a food sample is dissolved in boiling water. Next, a small amount of Benedict's reagent is added and the solution begins to cool. During the next four to 10 minutes, the solution should begin to change colors. If the color changes to blue, then no glucose is present.

Answer:

  1. You can estimate the concentration of a reducing  sugar solution using color standards made by  comparing the color against the colors obtained  in tests done with reducing sugar solutions of known  concentration.
  2. You could also measure the time  taken for the first color change.
