Article Description

A suitable paper-chromatographic method for the serial determination of carbohydrates in plants is described. For the analysis of these substances conditioned both fresh and freeze-dried or better air-dried samples of plant material can be used. However in contrast to the meaning of many authors it is not recommendable to use fresh or freeze dried plant samples, because more than half of the sucrose fraction is splitted into glucose and fructose. A discussion of the difficulties involved in the preparation and conservation of the plant matter as well as in the determination of carbohydrates is left out of account. In this respect, reference is made to the literature indicated. © 1973 Springer-Verlag.
