4 min
Starch – HCl mixture 6 min
8 min
10 min
_ min
4/- Discussion:
a) Explain the phenomenon when adding Lugol solution to potato starch granules?

b) Explain the different color in Starch – HCl mixture after time of boiling. Based on the
color of spot, why can we say that the structure of starch is affected by
temperature?

4/- Discussion:
a) Explain the function of 10% NaOH and 0.5% CuSO4 in Biuret reaction?

b) After adding 10% NaOH, the phenomenon in egg white is different from in cow milk,
why?

c) Why is the color intensity in egg white different from in cow milk?

II/ LIPIDS:
1/- Introduction:

Page 4 of 7
 Sample name:
Observe at __x objective
4/- Discussion:
a) Why is Soudan 3 used to detect lipid?

b) Why do we have to wash the stained sample with 20% Ethanol before observation
under microscope?
