Aim: The objective is to identify specific chemical substances within a cell and to be able to verify the presence or absence of each one in a cell or food substance for future testing. Hypothesis: The identification of each biomolecular chemical substance should be verified successfully‚ as well as determining if it is present or absent in the cell(s). Theoretical Base: A biomolecule is a substance that naturally occurs in living organisms. Biomolecules consist primarily of carbon and hydrogen

Carbohydrates General molecular formula Cn(H2O)n Appeared to be hydrates of carbon. not all carbohydrates have this empirical formula: deoxysugars‚ aminosugars Carbohydrate - polyhydroxy aldehyde‚ ketones. General characteristics Most carbohydrates are found naturally in bound form rather than as simple sugars Polysaccharides (starch‚ cellulose‚ inulin‚ gums) Glycoproteins and proteoglycans (hormones‚ blood group substances‚ antibodies) Glycolipids

*What is Biochemistry?* * Biochemistry also known as Chemistry of life is the study of chemical substances and vital processes occurring in living organism. Biochemistry governs all living organisms and living processes. * Study of chemical processes in living organisms‚ including‚ but not limited to‚ living matter. * Biochemistry is the science dealing with the chemical composition and chemical reactions happening within‚ and between the living cells of all organisms. → The

Jordan Wong Schiefer Acc Bio Block 6 11/15/12 Unit 4 Biochemistry relates to all things living because biochemistry makes up everything living. The atoms that make up the cells within our body are a part of biochemistry. There is carbon in every living thing and carbon based molecules are a part of biochemistry. Unit 4 describes the biochemistry in all living things. It explains the atomic structure and ions‚ properties of water and pH‚ organic molecules‚ chemical reactions and enzymes.

BIOLOGY LAB REPORT PRACTICAL M1 TESTING FOR MACROMOLECULES Title : Testing for Macromolecules Abstract : To test for macromolecules (carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ nucleic acids‚ and proteins)‚ iodine solution‚ alcohol‚ aceto-orcein stain and copper sulfate solution are used. The conclusions for all of the tests are positive. Introduction: A) Carbohydrate (starch) Carbohydrates are chemical compounds that contain oxygen‚ hydrogen‚ and carbon atoms. They consist of monosaccharide

Eric Lab 2 Questions 1. Monosaccharides and polysaccharides are two classes of Carbohydrates 2. Long chains of amino acids make up Proteins_ and contain the atom _Nitrogen which is unique to this macromolecule. 3. Fats like triacylglycerols are the macromolecule ___lipids_____. 4. You just reviewed type of carbohydrates. Glucose is a simple sugar called a monosaccharide ‚ whereas starch contains compound carbon chains and is a polysaccharide . 5. Polysaccharides are formed by a dehydration

Discussion: The liver homogenate was expected to have the highest amount of protein concentration‚ DNA concentration‚ and total glucose when compared to the other homogenates. The liver was the biggest organ in B. taurus and it carried out numerous functions such as producing bile‚ synthesizing proteins for blood clots‚ and recycling old red blood cells. The liver ended up containing the most DNA concentration‚ but it was surpassed in protein concentration by the kidney. The protein concentration

Title Biochemical Analysis of Blood Abstract Introduction After blood is collected from a patient it is analysed to check the fragments present and the fluid which will either be plasma or serum. After plasma is separated from blood it recollects the fibrinogen which in turn helps in clotting however serum is the portion of blood which remains after the fibrinogen is removed. Serum contains approximately 6-8% of the proteins which make up blood however plasma creates up to 55% of blood
