Document Summary

0. 2 e c n a b r o s b. The calibration curve for the absorbance of glucose standard solutions recorded at. The solutions consisted of varying volumes of 1. 50 mg/ml stock glucose, varying volumes of dh2o and 2. 00 ml of dns (1. 00% (w/v) 3,5 dinitrosalicyclic acid, 0. 40 m naoh, 5% (w/v) sodium potassium tartrate). Glucose-free solution with dns and dh2o was used as a blank. Tabulated data for the reducing sugar content of bananas at different stages of ripeness. Tabulated data for the reducing sugar content of bananas in different storage conditions. Bar graph representing the relationship between the % content of starch in the total banana mass in relation to the stage of ripeness of the banana.
