The experiment involves using qualitative reagents to test food including Benedict’s test for sugar, iodine test for starch and biuret test for proteins. To do this practical students will need stirring rods, filter papers, test tube racks, disposable pipettes and more. Here at Philip Harris, we provide essential biology equipment you need to ...

1. Use a pestle and mortar to grind up a small sample of food. 2. Transfer the ground up food into a small beaker. Then add distilled water. 3. Stir the mixture so that some of the food dissolves in the water. 4. Filter using a funnel with filter paper to obtain as clear a solution as possible. The solution should be collected in a conical ...

Food provides energy and nutrients. The different components of our diet have different sources and functions. There are different tests which can be used to detect carbohydrates, proteins and...

Conduct qualitative chemical tests for starch, reducing sugars, proteins, and lipids. Pipettes. Put some of the food sample into a test tube. Add a few drops of iodine solution to the food sample using a pipette. If starch is present, the solution turns from brown to blue-black. Note any colour change in a table of results.

2024年9月18日 · Use qualitative reagents to test for the presence of key biological molecules in a range of foods; Safely use appropriate heating devices and techniques including the use of a Bunsen burner and a water bath; A qualitative food test indicates if a substance is present or absent in a sample (although it doesn’t tell you how much is present)
