Why is the Glucose Oxidase test a more specific test for urinary glucose that Benedict's test?
The Glucose Oxidase test specifically measures the presence of glucose by detecting its oxidation reaction with glucose oxidase enzyme. This enzyme only reacts with glucose, making the test highly specific for glucose detection. On the other hand, Benedict's test, which relies on the reduction of copper ions, can give false positive results with other reducing sugars present in the urine, leading to lower specificity for glucose.
