Abstract (AB)	A Gas-Liquid Chromatographic (GLC) method for the simultaneous determination of fructose, glucose and sucrose in cane juice and cane molasses is described. The sugars are converted to their oximes before being trimethylsilylated, with the result that glucose is presented as a single peak on the chromatogram; equilibrium attainment of the sample solution is therefore unnecessary. Comparison were made with the Lane and Eynon method for reducing sugars and the Jackson and Gillis No. IV double polarization method for sucrose determination. Accuracy and precision of the method were assessed and found to be good.
