Title : Investigation of Action of Saliva and 3M Hydrochloric Acid in Two Carbohydrate Solutions Objective : To investigate the action of saliva and 3M hydrochloric acid in two carbohydrate solutions Results : Table 1: Observations Conclusions Solution A Benedict’s test : Initial blue solution changed to brick-red precipitate. Little amount of brick-red precipitate suspended in solution. The solution was translucent. Iodine test : Yellowish-brown remained the same. Abundant amount of

Sugar‚ one of the most used item in making various beverages worldwide. Almost every kind of beverages have sugar poured in to add the sweetness. Coffee‚ tea‚ juice‚ latte‚ milk‚ and many more. It’s like people will always take note "don’t forget to add sugar" when making any kind of drinks. It’s not uncommon to find sugar in most kind of foods either. What people usually overlook is the fact that sugar also provides health benefits. One example of healthier sugar is Panela sugar. This type of sugar

Most foods are carbohydrate-rich‚ and without your knowledge‚ you may have been putting too much of these foods into your body. Hence‚ high blood glucose is very common but in certain individuals causes low blood glucose. You already knew that carbohydrates are a primary energy source to keep your body functioning properly. At times‚ when you are not getting sufficient carbs‚ your body

This test is common; it can be evaluated in a variety of ways. By; physical appearance‚ and chemical/ molecular properties. Your body’s urine is the excess of what the body doesn’t use. Things like carbohydrates‚ lipids and proteins. Your body uses each one of theses in many ways. Carbohydrates are a quick source of energy for the body. They convert

There are four major types of biological macromolecules - carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids - made up of elements such as carbon‚ hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ nitrogen‚ sulfur‚ and phosphorus in various combinations. Macromolecules are essential for survival; they provide structural support‚ a source of stored

Theoretical Background Coffee has being blamed for so many ills from causing diseases and cancers to many people. Recent study states that coffee intake is not bad at all and doesn’t find any health benefits in causing cancer and diseases. However these studies state that a mild intake of unfiltered coffee can increase cholesterol levels. Newer studies have also shown that coffee may have benefits‚ such as protecting against Parkinson’s disease‚ type 2 diabetes and liver cancer also it has high

Glucose is a form of sugar used by your body for energy‚ and is derived from the consumption of carbohydrates (e.g. starch). So you eat a donut‚ your body breaks it down‚ glucose is released into your blood‚ insulin is released as a reaction‚ and triggers your liver‚ muscles and fatty tissue to absorb this donut-derived glucose as glycogen for use down

Polysaccharides: From Waste Products to Smart Materials Dr. Caroline L. Schauer Polysaccharides are simply carbohydrates formed by combination or chain of monosaccharides and are a very common organic compound found in nature. We are exposed to them various times a day and they make up an important part of our Earth. Some common polysaccharides are: cellulose‚ chitin (in seafood)‚ starch‚ alginate‚ hydroaluronic acid‚ chondritin sulfate‚ glycogen‚ xylan‚ pectin‚ and various others. Polysaccharides
