Fermented foods are made by the partial oxidation of sugars‚ or sometimes other organic molecules‚ in a food product. The difference between this and the normal cellular respiration is that the electron donor from the electron transport chain is an organic compound rather than oxygen. One challenge for producing fermented foods is the pH levels of the food. Bacteria have different optimal pH levels. Therefore‚ as pH changes due to fermentation different bacteria will begin to ferment the food. For example

Food Test 1: Test for Glucose – with Benedicts solution Benedicts solution is used to test for simple sugars‚ such as glucose. It is a clear blue solution of sodium and copper salts. In presence of simple sugars‚ the blue solution changes color to either green‚ yellow or brick-red‚ depending on the amount of sugar. Method 1) Mix smalls amount of each food sample (i.e.‚ Egg lumen‚ cylindrical piece of potato tuber‚ bread crump and crisps) in different test tubes with distilled water to make a

Macro molecules A macromolecule is a very large molecule commonly created by polymerization of smaller subunits. In biochemistry‚ the term is applied to the three conventional biopolymers (nucleic acids‚ lipids‚ proteins and carbohydrates)‚ as well as non-polymeric molecules with large molecular mass such as lipids and macrocycles. The individual constituent molecules of macromolecules are called monomers(mono=single‚ meros=part). Usage The term macromolecule was coined by Nobel laureate Hermann

Talent Identification Assignment 1- Scientific report Introduction The sporting industry is highly thought of and the big question is how to crack the code for making champions. Research into talent identification will considerably help on this quest to achieve the best. Talent Identification (TID) is both an Art and Science involving a complex blend of scientific knowledge and assessment‚ alongside coaching art. It is designed to proactively seek out those that possess the raw material

Macromolecules Biologically‚ there are four general types of macromolecules or biomolecules. They are carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ lipids and nucleic acids. Each of these plays an important role in maintaining life among living creatures and each is a piece of the elaborate puzzle of metabolism. Each has a different chemical composition and interacts with other molecules differently. Most of these biomolecules come from food sources and we are therefore already familiar with them. Without a

test can be done for 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

The 2013 law requiring Texans to show a valid identification card before voting in any election has caused quite a controversy since its implementation even though the national Constitution clearly specifies any state is allowed to require what it deems necessary to ensure lawful elections. The main incentive for implementing the requirement was “… a fear of voter fraud (especially‚ a suspicion that non-citizens who are illegally in this country are voting) (Denniston‚ 2014). While this law while

We will also identify units of measuring heat such as calories and joules. We will use basic lab equipment provided in our labpaq and we will use several household items as well. We

BIOLOGY LAB REPORT PRACTICAL M1 TESTING FOR MACROMOLECULES Title : Testing for Macromolecules Abstract : To test for macromolecules (carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ nucleic acids‚ and proteins)‚ iodine solution‚ alcohol‚ aceto-orcein stain and copper sulfate solution are used. The conclusions for all of the tests are positive. Introduction: A) Carbohydrate (starch) Carbohydrates are chemical compounds that contain oxygen‚ hydrogen‚ and carbon atoms. They consist of monosaccharide
