Photochemical reduction of molybdosilicic acid in the presence of L-arabino
se, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannitol, dulcitol, isosaccharin, pentaerythr
itol, and saccharose was studied. Optimal conditions for the photochemical
reduction of molybdosilicic acid were determined. procedures for the photom
etric determination of small amounts of D-glucose and silicon were develope
d and tested.
