Abstract
The oxidative power of the ferricyanide‐carbonate reagent towards dextrose and maltose is decreased by the presence of sodium chloride and sodium acetate, in quantities such as would be present after the hydrolysis of starch by hydrochloric acid or by β‐amylase in the presence of an acetic acid‐sodium acetate buffer. The oxidative power of the reagent is lowered by exposure to diffuse daylight and possibly also by prolonged storage in the dark.
