What chemical detects glucose?

A chemical called glucose oxidase is commonly used to detect glucose. This enzyme reacts with glucose in the presence of oxygen, producing hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct. The level of hydrogen peroxide produced is then typically measured as an indicator of the glucose concentration in a sample.


What indicator tests for starch?

iodine.


What is iodine used as an indicator for?

Iodine is used as an indicator for starch. When a substance has iodine added to it, then it will turn into a dark blue color. This is a sign that the substance indeed has starch in it.

How do you make a vitamin c indicator?

Iodine makes a good indicator. The iodine will blend into the surrounding color. Once their is no more vitamin c then the iodine will start to chemically combine with any starches


How does Lugol's solution work as an indicator?

An indicator is a substance that changes colour in the presence of another substance. Let say inside the beaker are substances of both glucose and starch. The glucose and starch are of same colour. By injecting the lugol's solution into the beaker, the lugol's solution changes colour in the area of where starch is, while no colour changes in the presence of glucose. Thus, by using the Lugol's solution which only acts as indicator for starch and not glucose, we could tell part which area floats around with glucose and starch substances. Lugol's solution works as an indicator because it will stain starches due to iodine's interaction with the coil structure of the polysaccharide.

Is glucose expected to have a positive iodine test?

Yes, glucose is expected to give a positive iodine test. Iodine reacts with glucose to form a blue-black color, indicating the presence of reducing sugars in the sample.
