Acarbose is a medication that inhibits enzymes that are needed to digest carbohydrates: In a second article researchers concluded that proper intake of natural amylase and sucrose inhibitors like acarbose may be useful in the prevention and treatment of many chronic disorders associated with fluctuations in

Ethics Brief MGMT 567 Is HFCS Really that sweet? Corn is among the most planted and produced crops in the US. According to 2013 statistics‚ the US is the largest corn producer in the world with 80 million acres of corn fields and almost $64 billion annual sales. Besides its consumption as raw food‚ industrial processing of corn yields high economic value. Among industrial uses of corn‚ High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is the most controversial one from an ethics perspective. HFCS is an artificial

Introduction A series of biochemical tests was carried out to identify unknown carbohydrates. There were six carbohydrates that needed to be identified; they have been randomly labelled A-F. The carbohydrates are glucose‚ fructose‚ maltose‚ lactose‚ sucrose and starch. There was six tests that were carried out to help identify them‚ these were: Iodine Test‚ Solubility in Water‚ Benedict’s test‚ Acid Hydrolysis‚ Barfoed test and Diastix test. Aim The aim of the experiment which was carried out was

components of nucleic acids (D-ribose and 2-deoxy-D-ribose). Monosaccharides‚ oligosaccharides‚ and polysaccharides are theclassifications of carbohydrates. This experiment involves the carbohydrates starch‚ glucose‚ fructose‚ maltose‚ xylose‚ and sucrose. These carbohydrates are the standards to be used in determining the unknown sample with the help of the Barfoed’s test‚ Benedict’s test‚ Bial’s Orcinol test‚ Seliwanoff’s test‚ and Iodine test.

Benedict’s solution which is used in the test. This was the test for reducing sugars. If the reducing sugar test comes out as negative (no colour change)‚ the non-reducing sugar test can be done. The non-reducing sugar test works because if there is any sucrose present (which is a non-reducing sugar‚ that we are testing for)‚ it is broken down into those monosaccharides‚ which can be tested for using the ordinary reducing sugar test. A positive result therefore means non-reducing sugars are present on the

An example is putting sugar in your coffee‚ after a while if you don ’t mix the solution‚ the sucrose will over time‚ go through the process of diffusion and be distributed throughout the coffee. Osmosis is movement of H2O molecules passing through a permeable cell membrane to the less concentrated solution‚ eventually to reach an equivalent number of molecules
