Exercise 4.4: Identification of Macromolecules in Household Substances The purpose of this lab is to determine the presence of glucose‚ starch‚ and protein in various samples through standard tests. Solution 1: Formula I believe formula will test positive for sugar and protein since it is supposed to be a nutritious‚ balanced drink for infants. Materials and Methods: Please refer to the Biology 1406 Lab Manual Pg. 43 Test For | Coloration/ Appearance of Positive Control | Coloration/

testing these sugar to show or prove are they reducing sugar or non reducing sugar.Example of the test that can be done is Benedict test. 1 In plant‚glucose is stored as the polysaccharide starch.Example of food that rich in starch is oat‚cereal‚rice and corn.Starch can be divided into two groups which is that is amylose and amylopectin. Natural starches are mixtures of amylose

Polysaccharides are the long chains of monosaccharide‚ which is called the polymer of carbohydrates. Monosaccharide and disaccharides can be tested by the Benedict’s test‚ as they are reducing sugars. Polysaccharides such as starch and glycogen can be tested by the iodine test. Also‚ carbohydrates are consumed to provide energy to our body and they are useful in metabolism. Therefore‚ it is one of the essential macromolecule that we have to consume. 2. Lipids Lipids are made up of a glycerol molecule

students: a. Polysaccharide Solution - blended potato or lab grade starch solution b. Monosaccharide Solution – apple juice or lab grade glucose solution c. Protein Solution – blended meat or egg whites d. Lipid Solution – vegetable oil‚ melted butter 2. Set up 4 lab stations (twice around the room) for students to rotate. Each station should have the materials needed to conduct one of the following tests: a. Iodine Test: starch + iodine (yellowish orange) blue-black Ex. Potato solution b. Benedict’s

Investigating the Biomolecules found in Gelatin Abstract: For this inquiry lab‚ the research team tested the gelatin solution for the presence of biomolecules. The team searched for the presence of starch‚ glucose‚ lipids‚ and proteins through the use of indicators: Sudan III‚ Lugol’s iodine‚ Benedict’s solution‚ and Biuret’s reagent. After testing the gelatin solution in the presence of the indicators‚ the results showed that Lugol’s reacted‚ turning orange-pink (oils) and the Biuret reagent (protein)

Hydrolysis Report Bile Esculin Hydrolysis‚ Starch Hydrolysis‚ UreaHydrolysis‚ Casein Hydrolysis Hydrolysis Report Introduction Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that uses water to split complex molecules. The water molecule H2O is split in the mechanism of hydrolysis‚ hydrogen cations and hydroxide anions. When the enzyme catalyzes its reaction inside the cell‚ it is referred to as intracellular hydrolases. When the enzymes secreted from the organism to catalyze reactions outside the cell‚ it

The digestive system is a complex network of organs as well as other structures which all work together to supply the body with the necessary nutrients and energy required. If problem occurs along the digestive tract the
