Agenda
• Class Business
– Test rewrites due today! IF YOU GOT A 28
OR LOWER THEY ARE MANDATORY!
– Building macromolecules review ?s are HW if
you did not finish them in class
• Class Materials Now being put on Bio
Website, NOT schoolloop (link is in your
locker)
• Essential Question
• Identifying Macromolecules
IDENTIFYING
MACROMOLECULES
IN FOOD
LAB
Introduction
Carbohydrates,
proteins, and fats are
all essential nutrients.
We cannot manufacture
these nutrients so we
must obtain them
from our environment.
Introduction
• In this lab, with the use of
indicators as chemical detection
tools, you will analyze a variety of
foods for the presence of nutrients.
• Detection is based upon observing
a chemical change that takes place
most often a change in color.
What is an indicator?
• Indicators are chemical compounds used
to detect the presence of other
compounds.

Test for Simple Carbohydrates
Benedict’s solution
• Benedict's solution is a chemical indicator for
simple sugars such as glucose: C6H12O6.
• Aqua blue: negative test;
• Yellow green/brick red, etc.: positive test
Test for Simple Carbohydrates
Benedict’s solution
• Unlike some other indicators, Benedict’s
solution does not work at room
temperature - it must be heated first.
Procedure
Simple carbohydrate
Add 1ml of monosaccharide to test
tube #1
Add 1 ml of disaccharide to test
tube #2
Add 1 ml of polysaccharide to test
tube #3
Add 10 drops of Benedict solution
Place test tube in a hot
water bath for 5 minutes.

Test for Complex Carbohydrates
Lugol’s solution
• IKI solution  (Iodine Potassium Iodine) color
change = blue to black
Test for Complex Carbohydrates
Lugol’s Iodine Solution
• Iodine solution is an indicator for a molecule
called starch.
• Starch is a huge molecule made up of hundreds
of simple sugar molecules (such as glucose)
connected to each other.
Procedure
Complex carbohydrate
1. Add 1ml of monosaccharide to test
tube #1
2. Add 1 ml of disaccharide to test
tube #2
3. Add 1 ml of polysaccharide to test
tube #3
4. Add 10 drops of IKI solution to
each test tube

Test for Fats (lipids)
Sudan IV
• Like lipids, the chemical Sudan
IV is not soluble in water; it is,
however, soluble in lipids.
• In this test dark red Sudan IV is
added to a solution along with
ethanol to dissolve any possible
lipids.
• If lipids are present the Sudan IV
will stain them reddish-orange
(positive test).
Test for Fats (lipids)
Sudan IV
• If lipids are present the Sudan IV will stain them
reddish-orange (positive test).
Procedure
Fats (lipids)
•
Add 1ml of food sample
to tray
Add 10 drops of Sudan
IV
•

•
Record your results
Using a Q-Tip smear a
sample of the lipid onto a
square of brown paper.

Test for Protein (amino acids)
Biuret solution
• Biuret solution  dark violet blue to
pinkish purple
Procedure
Protein (amino acids)
1. Add 1ml known protein sample to
well-tray
2. Add 1 ml of known non-protein
(any of the other samples in the
front of the room) to well-tray
3. Add 10 drops of Biuret solution
