They are frequently of a bitter taste but by the action of ferments or of dilute acids and alkalies always break down into some characteristic substance (acid aldehyde alcohol phenole or alkaloid) and glucose (or some other sugar); hence the name. They are of the nature of complex and compound ethers and ethereal salts of the sugar carbohydrates. |
