What is the color of saliva after meal on pH paper?
The color of saliva after eating will depend on the acidity or basity of the food that has just been eaten. However, about 2 hours after the meal, the food will have been properly processed and digested and saliva will again return to its neutral state. This neutral state of saliva turns blue on pH paper.

What color does saliva turn into with the Benedict's solution?
Benedict's solution changes colors (blue to green to yellow to orange to red) in the presence of "reducing" sugars, which are not normally present in saliva. An interesting experiment, however, is testing table sugar with Benedict's solution. Table sugar is a glucose sugar joined to a fructose sugar, so they cannot react with the Benedict's solution and no color change occurs. Put table sugar in your mouth for a few moments, and then test the saliva. Now the Benedict's solution will react! (The reason: saliva has an enzyme, amylase, which breaks the glucose and fructose apart so that they can react to the Benedict's.)
