Abundant amount of blue solutions remained the same and it was opaque. Iodine test: Yellowish-brown colour turned to blue-black. Moderate amount of blue-black precipitate was left on the white tile. It was opaque. Absence of reducing sugar ‚ presence of starch Table 2 : Tube Contents Temp (℃) Benedict’s Test – Colour Observation

Principle involved | Dehydration of the carbohydrate by concentrated sulfuric acid to produce an aldehyde | Reagent | H2SO4 | Positive results | a purple-black layer/violet ring in the compound | Compound responsible | | | | Amylose in starch is responsible for the formation of a deep blue color in the presence of iodine. The term carbohydrate originally referred to hydrates of carbon because the general formula of these compounds was CnH2Non or Cn(H2O)n. SAMPLES | OBSERVATIONS

But there is something very important that it didn’t tell you: You can make your own bioplastic from algae. And we will give you step-by-step instructions on how to do it. It’s a fun little science project. You can do it in your kitchen‚ with stuff you buy at the grocery store. And you can see

TESTING FOR MACROMOLECULES Describe the positive test for starch. Explain how you know. The positive test for starch is adding iodine solution. In the experiment‚ the starch solution had the most dramatic reaction with the iodine solution. It turned to an opaque bluish-purple solution while other samples all turned to a colour related to orange and yellow other than the vegetable oil. But the vegetable oil was more translucent than completely opaque. Describe the positive test for

The plate was incubated until the next lab period‚ where we then flooded the plate with Iodine and were able to observe and record starch Hydrolysis. (Table 1) * In order to test carbohydrate catabolism under anaerobic conditions we tested cultures of Pseudomonas aerugenosa‚ Escherichia coli‚ and Alcaligenes faecalis in tubes containing a glucose medium.

Biodegradable Plastics Market Forecast and Opportunities‚ 2019 Released On 23rd July 2014 Biodegradable plastics are the type of bioplastics that can be decomposed by micro-organisms. They can be derived either from renewable polymers such as starch‚ starch blends and polylactic acid (PLA)‚ or from petroleum feedstock such as polycaprolactone (PCL) and polybutyrate. Based on the source material‚ biodegradable plastics are classified as biobased and fossil based biodegradable plastics. Among these

The objective of this macromolecules lab was to identify the presence any of the major macromolecules in various every day food items. The three macromolecules that this lab was carried out for were carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and proteins. There were five different experiments conducted and each of those experiments had one factor in common‚ they all had the same controls. The controls in this lab activity were already set for the lab activity. The controls were the distilled water and the baking soda

Chapter 22: Nutrition and Digestion Short-Answer Questions 1) What types of foods are characteristic of the diets of carnivores‚ herbivores‚ and omnivores? Answer Carnivores – have a diet that consists of meat which they get by killing and consuming other living animals‚ other animals that have died‚ or by sucking the fluids of other animals. Herbivores – have a diet that consists of eating parts of plants such as leaves‚ fruit‚ stems‚ roots‚ or by extracting fluids from plants and consuming

parts. THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Digestion is a process of breaking down large complex food substances into simple molecules that can be used by each cell. Most of the foods of organisms consist of carbohydrates‚ fats‚ and proteins. Each of these large molecules acted upon by special kinds of digestive systems that speed up digestion by hydrolysis or splitting of molecules. Food also includes smaller molecules such as water‚ minerals and vitamins. DIGESTION IN PLANTS Plants do not have
