Anthrone, also known as 9(10H)-Anthracenone, is a planar tricyclic aromatic ketone. In acidic conditions, anthrone reacts with carbohydrate to yield a blue-green color.
Application
The anthrone method is a colorimetric assay to detect reducing and nonreducing sugars.
Anthrone is used in the quantitative determination of streptomycin.
It has been used to detect carbohydrate containing lipids and to measure sugar content such as sucrose and trehalose in the liquid medium.
