This paper compared the pros and cons, the operability of two methodology, by using the Fenlin reagent titration and the 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid colorimetry, to determine the reducing sugar content and the total sugar content in the wild Jerusalem artichoke from Xiangxi. The RSD value is 2.00% by using Fenlin reagent titration and the precision is 8%~13%, while, the RSD value is 1.68% by using 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid colorimetry and the precision is 2.5%~4.0%. It is concluded that the Fenlin reagent titration method is susceptible to the finish measurement etc factors, especially for samples with low sugar content, but is more suitable …
