Detailed Solution

Amylose is not a reducing carbohydrate because it does not have a free anomeric carbon that can reduce other molecules. The reducing property of a carbohydrate is due to the presence of a free anomeric carbon, which can be oxidized and reduce other molecules. Amylose is composed of glucose units joined by α(1→4) glycosidic bonds, and these bonds do not have a free anomeric carbon.
