Determination of the presence of carbohydrates and protein in aqueous solution samples Objectives To determine the presence of starch‚ glycogen‚ reducing sugar‚ peptide‚ and proteins by utilizing Iodine test‚ Benedict test‚ and Biuret test. Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to identify the presence of macromolecules by using various positive and negative controls. The principle building blocks of living organisms are essentially constructed by carbon-containing

Color Change: State/Results In the Tube In the Beaker Color Glucose Color Glucose Initial State (Before placing tube into graduated cylinder) Transparent Yes Transparent No Final State Orange Yes Orange Yes 1. No‚ the Starch did not. Because once we added Iodine to the Beaker the color did not change. 2. No‚ because the color inside the tube did

important in controlling reaction speed (by initiating and regulating biological activity)‚ cell communication‚ and growth. One particularly significant enzyme is amylase‚ which catalyzes the hydrolysis of alpha glycosidic linkages of amylose‚ starch components‚ and other oligosaccharides (Qian‚ et al.‚ 1994). Porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase can be found in pancreatic secretions‚ and works most efficiently at pH 6.9 for the majority of substrates. This ideal pH‚ however‚ has shown to shift

of diffusion. In this case‚ a large molecule like starch‚ is dissolved in water. The starch molecule is too large to pass through the cell membrane‚ so it cannot diffuse from one side of the membrane to the other. The water molecules can‚ and do‚ pass through the membrane. Hence‚ the membrane is said to be semi-permeable‚ since it allows some molecules to pass through but not others. However‚ on the side of the membrane with the starch‚ the starch molecules interfere with the movement of the water

In order to find the Vitamin C content you will need to use a process called titration which‚ according to the Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia‚ is when you add a chemicals to a liquid in order to create a reaction which can determine the content of a substance inside the liquid. This is how you will find the Vitamin C content of different juices. Iodine will be added to the juice‚ which will create a reaction that can help determine the Vitamin C content. To start‚ pour 30 milliliters (mL) of Lugol’s

definitely pass through the semi permeable membrane because it is a very small molecule‚ compared to the large pores in dialysis tubing. Glucose and starch have bigger molecules‚ and therefore are less likely to pass through the dialysis tubing Materials: • 250- mL beaker • 12 test tubes (varied sizes) • 200mm dialysis tubing • String • 1.0% starch solution • 10% glucose solution • 5% sodium chloride solution • Benedict’s reagent • Iodine reagent o 0.1M silver nitrate solution (in a dropper

Inventions have evolved and continue to evolve such that after several years of study‚ research and experimentation reach great developments. With continuing efforts to investigate the constituents of Philippine plants‚ we have pursued investigation of starch of the Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia Crassipes) as an alternative component for making a Biodegradable Plastic. Producing Bio-Plastic is a little bit advanced but it is one of the most popular projects‚ since we are advocating a greener world and a safety
