Instead of growing corn based ethanol‚ which causes negative effects to our economy and to the environment‚ researchers have discovered a new product‚ "cellulosic ethanol." Cellulosic ethanol is formed from waste plant material (cellulose) through a process called “thermo-chemical conversion”. Cellulosic ethanol plants are underway and the future of ethanol energy is making huge advancements. Unlike corn based ethanol‚ cellulosic ethanol will be less harmful to the environment and

Biruiet Test: Procedure Instead of the Biuret Reagent‚ the following may be used: * Fehling’s Solutions A and B * Sodium hydroxide and copper (II) sulphate solutions 1. Add 2 cm3 of the liquid food sample* to a clean‚ dry test tube 2. Add 2 cm3 of Biuret Reagent. Alternatively: * Use sodium hydroxide solution and copper sulphate solution instead. Add 1 cm3 of sodium hydroxide solution (40% or bench solution) and 1% copper (II) sulphate solution dropwise – drop by drop - to

Uruguay 1. What kind of geographical characteristics does your country have? What are they called? The country of Uruguay is mostly rolling plains and low hills. Most of the low-lying landscape is grassland which is great for cattle and sheep raising. The Río de la Plata (in Spanish Silver River) is the estuary formed by the combination of the Uruguay River and the Parana River. The Silver River is wide‚ shallow‚ and cloudy. It is the widest estuary in the world. It is a funnel-shaped bay on

Carbohydrates are the most abundant of these four macromolecules. Its basic units are called monosaccharide such as glucose‚ galactose and fructose. Monosaccharide can be linked together to form disaccharide and polysaccharide such as starch and cellulose. There are many functions of carbohydrates such as storage and transport of energy (starch) and structural component

1.0 ABSTRACT The production of reducing sugars by acid of carbohydrate cereals powder‚ jams (total sugar content) and jams (reducing sugar content) were performed in order to study reducing sugar production. The study involved hydrolysis carbohydrate cereals powder and jams by immersing in boiling water at environmental temperature. Acid hydrolysis was carried out through reflux boiling for 20 minutes with 10ml 0f 1.5M concentrations of diluted sulphuric acid. Reducing sugars concentrations
