Pre-Lab 1 Assignment Quantitative Analysis of Biomolecules Biochemical analysis involves the characterization of biomolecules within a sample using appropriate laboratory techniques. There are two principal approaches: 1. Qualitative analysis – where a sample is analyzed to determine whether a biomolecule is present or absent. As an example‚ a blood sample might be analyzed for a specific antibody or a bacterial cell might be probed for a nucleic acid sequence. 2. Quantitative analysis

IODINE TEST FOR STARCH The Iodine test is used to test for the presence of starch. Iodine solution — iodine dissolved in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide — reacts with the starch producing a purple black color. The colour can be detected visually with concentrations of iodine as low as 0.00002M at 20°C. However the intensity of the colour decreases with increasing temperature and with the presence of water-miscible‚ organic solvents such as ethanol. Also the test cannot be done at very low
