Re:... does have one hydroxyl and can polymerize (as in the case of starches). see this website please.( in the text you can find this sentence:"ketone-bearing sugars like fructose are considered reducing sugars" Therefor fructose is reducing sugar.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reducing_sugar ...

Re: fructose as a monomer for a polysaccharide Fructose is what carbohydrate chemists call "non-reducing" Fructose is a reducing sugar (ketone group)... That's news to me. Please show me this reducing ketone group? please see this picture http://www.whisky.de/archiv/experte/images/fructose.gif c=o is ketone ...
