The phenylhydrazine reacts ^\•ith many of the sugars to form insoluble yellow cr^'staUine compounds, known as osazones. Glucose and fructose produce the same osazone, whose crystals appear as long needles arranged in sheaves (Fig. 22, A); that of maltose forms rosettes or plates of broad needles (Fig. 22, B), whilst in the case of cane-sugar no osazone is produced. Another method of storage of carbohydrate-material takes the form of strongly thickened ceU-waUs (cf. p. 30 and Fig. 14, A), as in many seeds (Date, Lupine, Coffee, etc.). Such walls consist.
