Will ribulose reduce Benedict's reaction?

Ribulose, a pentose sugar, does not typically reduce Benedict's reagent. Benedict's test is designed to detect reducing sugars, which have free aldehyde or ketone groups. While ribulose does have a ketone group, it is generally not reactive enough to produce a positive result in the Benedict's test under normal conditions. Therefore, ribulose would not result in a color change indicative of a positive reaction.
