Product Description



Barfoeds Reagent is a laboratory-grade aqueous solution used for qualitative analysis to detect monosaccharides. This odourless blue liquid contains copper(II) acetate and acetic acid, making it soluble in water and reacting with carbohydrates. With a molecular formula of C4H6CuO6, it is stored in cool, dry places and has a stable shelf life. Ideal for carbohydrate detection in laboratories, it has a pH level of around 4 and a molecular weight of 213.64 g/mol. This reagent is vital in distinguishing monosaccharides due to its ability to reduce Cu(II) ions to Cu(I) ions.
