Abstract:
The main objective of this study was to determine the refractive indices of liquids from different fruits which will help to identify the amount of sugar concentration contained in different fruits which are consumed by people in the communities of Bududa district in Uganda. The fruit with higher brix indicates much sugar and the one with low brix indicates less sugar. According to the experimental results, it is shown that lemon has much sugar and the mango has less sugar. This shows that lemon can be of harm to people suffering from diabetes.
