The levulose equivalent of the dextrose, 140.7:12.4, is again 11.3 mg., so that the figures for levulose and dextrose, third approximation, are not changed further.The ratio between levulose and dextrose is thus found to be 98.7:140.7, or as 41:59. For this ratio Table IB gives a Lane and Eynon factor of 43.3 instead of 43.4, and the total reducing sugars are therefore not 239.4, but 238.8 mg. In this particular case a second calculation, on the basis of 238.8 mg. of total reducing sugars, is hardly necessary, because the difference is within the limits of error.If it is made, the second calculation gives 98.7 mg. of levulose and 140.1 mg. of dextrose in 100 ml. of solution or in 25.84 grams of raw sugar. The final result is therefore 0.382 per cent of levulose, 0.542 per cent of dextrose, 0.924 per cent of total reducing sugars.The results of the analyses of this and other raw sugars are compiled in Table IV.
