Aliphatic aldehydes and reducing sugars will form a yellow-to-red precipitate with Benedict's reagent, causing the blue solution to appear green-to-red. This reaction can be used as a test for such ...

Benedict’s reagent was the primary test for the presence of glucose in urine, an indication of diabetes. Urine was mixed with the reagent in a test tube, then heated over a Bunsen burner. A change in ...
