aldoses's Usage Examples:

oxidoreductases interconverting aldoses and ketoses.

family of isomerases, specifically those intramolecular oxidoreductases interconverting aldoses and ketoses.

In such cases it is common to find the amino acid tryptophan and various aldoses used as the biological feedstock.

found in many biological systems, and are the products of the oxidation of aldoses by Benedict"s or Fehling"s reagents.

isomerases, specifically those intramolecular oxidoreductases interconverting aldoses and ketoses.

interconverting aldoses and ketoses.

monosaccharide ketoses are reducing sugars, because they can tautomerize into aldoses via an enediol intermediate, and the resulting aldehyde group can be oxidised.

Ribulose has the same stereochemistry at carbons 3 and 4 as the five-carbon aldoses ribose and arabinose.

Ketoses must first tautomerize to aldoses before they can.

aldoses via an enediol intermediate, and the resulting aldehyde group can be oxidised, for example in the Tollens" test or Benedict"s test.

glyceraldehyde Tetroses: erythrose, threose Pentoses: ribose, arabinose, xylose, lyxose Hexoses: Glucose The most commonly discussed category of aldoses.

Ketoses can isomerize to aldoses through the Lobry-de Bruyn-van Ekenstein transformation.

Aldoses with alcohol groups on the right of the Fischer projection are D-aldoses, and those with alcohols on the left are L-aldoses.
