Abstract
It was confirmed, by the application of the cutting method of paper chromatograms, that fructose, glucose, arabinose, sucrose, maltose, raffinose, stachyose, inositol and two unkown sugar-alcohols exist freely in black tea (see Figures 1, 2 and Table 1).
Moreover, the method of fractional quantitative analysis of these substances in black tea was established, and their quantitative distribution were studied (see Table 1).
