APR I] RESULTS. 317 



CHAPTER XIII. p. 288. 



Qualitative. 



Experiment No. 1. 



Glucoses, cane-sugar, and maltose are generally all present. 



Experiment No. 2. 



(a) Very little or no cane-sugar or reducing sugars will 

 be found. 



(b) Abundance of glucoses and cane-sugar will be found, 

 but little or no maltose. Crystals of cane-sugar can easily be 

 obtained by the strontia method. 



Values obtained in a set of experiments with leaves and 

 roots of Beta vulgaris. 



The p.c. are calculated for material dried at 100 C. 

 Experiment No. 1. 



Total sugars. Leaves. Roots. 



Est. by fermentation process and 



calculated as glucoses 0-2 6-8 p.c. 



Experiment No. 2. (a) (b) 



Glucoses 0-5 1-8 



Cane-sugar nil nil 



Maltose 0-3 0-7 



CHAPTER XIV. p. 293. 



Quantitative. 



Values obtained using tubers of potato, leaves of Acer 

 pseudoplatanus, and grains and seedlings of wheat. 



The p.c. are calculated for material dried at 100 C. in each 

 case.
