Starch/Amylase Experiment Report Objective: The purpose of the starch/amylase experiment was to simulate and observe the process of enzyme digestion. Materials: * 1 small beaker * 2 large beakers * 2 cut pieces of soaked dialysis tubing * 2 dialysis tubing clamps or pieces of twine * 2 clean plastic pipettes * 1 bottle of Lugol’s solution * 2 glucose test strips Procedure: Begin the experiment by placing 4 full pipettes worth of cooked starch in a beaker. Then‚ use

glucose-1-phosphate‚ 1% maltose‚ honey‚ 1% sucrose‚ 1%lactose‚ 1% glycogen‚ 1% starch‚ protein‚ beer‚ distilled water and an unknown solution (test tube: 300). The iodine test for starch was to test how would starch reacted if we put iodine in it. The color of starch before the test was clear. The color of the iodine was brown. When you added iodine into starch‚ the result was the starch solution turned dark blue. Starch had a positive result is because of the complex of iodine stuck inside the amylase

Property of Starch The experiment obtained Starch to have a bulk density of 0.48g/ml‚ i.e. 0.48g of Starch occupies 1ml of water. This value represented the density of starch incorporating the voids. The tapped density was found to be 0.60g/ml. This value represented the density of starch excluding the voids and intra- particle pores greater than molecular and atomic dimensions in the crystal lattice. This simple means‚ by reducing the number of intermolecular spaces between the starch particles‚

Starch is a type of Carbohydrate that’s made from thousands of glucose units. Simple sugars are the basic units that make up starch. Carbohydrates provide us with energy so that we can carry out our daily routines. Our body then digests it into glucose so we can have energy to do that. Saliva is a form of chemical digestion that is in the mouth. Amylase is an enzyme that catalysts the breakdown of starch into sugars. Amylase is present in human saliva‚ where it begins the chemical process of digestion

INTRODUCTION Macromolecules are highly important organized organic molecules that are found within living cells. These biological molecules help the body execute precise important tasks. There are four types of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids. (Karp‚ 2010) This specific experiment showcased the identification of different macromolecules using three different testing methods. Carbohydrates‚ sugar molecules‚ are known as “fast fuel” in the body‚ and they contain

Understanding the macromolecules in our bodies that are essential to our lives is what makes up molecular biology. One of the many things to understand about the macromolecules in our bodies is to first know about how they interact and types of interactions that are involved with each other‚ especially down to an atomic level. These interactions are included within types of covalent and non-covalent bonding. Covalent bonding involves the pairing of electrons that are shared between atoms‚ whereas

What amount of amylase is the best to produce a better reaction with starch? A 1% solution of amylase‚ made from 0.15g of amylase added to 15ml of water‚ a 2% solution of amylase made of 0.3g of amylase added to 15ml of water‚ and a 0.5% solution of amylase made of 0.75g of amylase to 15ml of water were created. A 0.25% starch solution was also created‚ and 3ml was added to each of the 4 test tubes. 1 drop of iodine was added to each test tube. 4ml of the 1% solution was added to the first test
