Monosaccharides (Aldoses) : Biochem Structure Sheet 1. Carbohydrates

This document provides information about carbohydrate structures, including monosaccharides. It lists the structures of various aldoses (monosaccharides with an aldehyde functional group) and ketoses (monosaccharides with a ketone functional group). Some examples of aldoses listed are D-glyceraldehyde, D-ribose, D-glucose, and D-mannose. Some examples of ketoses listed are dihydroxyacetone, D-erythrulose, D-ribulose, and D-fructose. The document presents the chemical structures of these various monosaccharides.
