〔化〕己糖（一般化学分子式为 C₆H₁₂O₆）
Example sentencesExamples
- They have six atoms of carbon in each molecule and are therefore called hexoses.
- For example, fruit pulp of many species contains the disaccharide sucrose and the hexoses, glucose and fructose.
- Like fructose, it is a six-carbon atom sugar, or a hexose.
- The most important monosaccharides are hexoses such as glucose and galactose.
