Minor carbohydrates present in carrot (Daucus carota L.) have been studied by GC–MS analysis of their trimethylsilyl derivatives because of their remarkable role in a variety of biological functions. Scyllo-inositol and sedoheptulose (d-altro-2-heptulose), identified for the first time in this paper were present in all the carrots analysed in concentrations ranging 1.5–5.8 and 1.4–24.6 mg g−1 dried weight, respectively. Other minor carbohydrates detected in carrot were myo- inositol (2.2–9.8 mg g−1) and mannitol (traces-1.3 mg g−1). Whereas small amounts (close to 2 mg g−1) of scyllo-inositol were experimentally determined in other vegetables from the Apiaceae family (parsley, coriander and fennel), sedoheptulose was only detected at trace levels.
