    Macromolecules are molecules that are large and essential for life. They consist of carbohydrates‚ nucleic acids‚ proteins‚ and lipids. Carbohydrates are molecules that are composed of monosaccharaides. Carbohydrates include cellulose‚ starches‚ and sugars. Two tests may be used to determine the presence of the carbohydrates. Those tests are the Benedict’s test and Lugol’s Iodine Test. Proteins are another category of macromolecules. The protein is a type of macromolecule that carry out many processes

    Macromolecule is a very large molecule which can get collected in the kidneys. Generally‚ the molecular weight of the macromolecular vehicle is bigger than that of the prodrugs and so this kind of system can achieve the objective. Pro-drugs have the capability to select the goal in the kidney because it can release the active drug by the action of renal enzymes

    Identification of Macromolecules Introduction The most common macromolecules found in living organisms are lipids‚ carbohydrates‚ proteins and nucleic acids. Briefly‚ the meaning of macromolecules is that they normally contain two or more molecules in them and their main functions are to store energy‚ information and much more. Most foods are known to be combinations of macromolecules. While some of these compounds can be detected by taste tests‚ many cannot. Scientists then use certain
