1. Starch Test with Iodine

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Iodine Test: A chemical test used to detect the presence of starch in a sample.
    Iodine solution is applied to the sample to observe a color change.

  • Positive Result for Starch: When iodine turns black or blue-black after application, indicating starch presence.
    This color change confirms starch is present in the tested material.

  • Starch: A carbohydrate stored in plants as an energy reserve.
    A polysaccharide composed of glucose units.

  • Iodine Solution: A reagent containing iodine and potassium iodide, used in starch testing.
    It reacts with starch molecules to produce a color change.

  • Control Sample: A sample known to contain or not contain starch, used to compare results.
    Ensures the accuracy of the test.
