  • Classification of carbohydrates
  • On the basis of hydrolysis
  1. Simple carbohydrates
    i) Monosaccharides: Aldoses and Ketoses
  2. Complex carbohydrates
    i) Oligosaccharides: Disaccharides, Trisaccharides, Tetrasaccharides
    ii) Polysaccharides: Homopoly-saccharides and Heteropoly-saccharides
  • On the basis of solubility
  1. Sugars: Reducing and Non-reducing sugars
  2. Non-sugars
