What else can I help you with?
What conclusion can you draw when an experimental sample gives both a positive starch and a positive maltose test after incubation?
The positive starch test indicates the presence of starch in the sample which could have been broken down to maltose. The positive maltose test confirms the presence of maltose. Therefore, it can be concluded that the sample initially contained starch which was subsequently broken down to maltose during incubation.
What conclusions can you draw when an experimental sample gives both a positive starch test and a positive maltose test after incubation?
Starch digestion (hydrolysis) is incomplete
Why would a negative iodine test for starch indicate a positive result for the enzymatic degradation of starch by amylase?
A negative iodine test for starch indicates that the starch has been broken down by amylase into simpler sugars, such as maltose or glucose, that do not react with iodine. Therefore, the absence of a starch-iodine complex formation suggests that amylase has successfully degraded the starch substrate.
What conclusions can you draw when an experiment sample givs both a positive starch test and a positive maltose test after incubation?
When an experiment sample yields both a positive starch test and a positive maltose test after incubation, it suggests that starch was initially present and has been broken down into maltose during the incubation process. This indicates the activity of amylase, an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into simpler sugars like maltose. The positive starch test indicates that not all starch was fully converted, while the maltose test confirms the presence of the product of starch breakdown. Overall, this suggests effective enzymatic activity in the sample.
What compound is produced as a result of mixing amylase with an aqueous solution of starch?
Maltose. Water and Starch mixed with amylase makes maltose
Is bacillus subtilis positive or negative for starch hydrolysis?
it is positive for starch hydrolysis
What is maltose dextrin?
dextrine and maltose are byproduct of starch when starch is completely hydrolized it gives dextrin and maltose
Function of maltose?
The main function of maltose is to digest starch . Starch is commonly used in plants to store glucose and maltose will serve as the intermediary product of the digestion of starch.
What is the name of the short chains of glucose units that result from starch breakdown?
What is the name of the short chains of glucose units that result from starch breakdown?
How does the process of digestion break starch down into maltose?
During digestion, starch is broken down into maltose through the action of enzymes. The process starts in the mouth with the enzyme amylase breaking down starch into maltose. This process continues in the small intestine where more enzymes, such as maltase, further break down the starch into maltose. The maltose is then absorbed into the bloodstream for energy.
If you mix starch with saliva and treat it with vinegar is it going to be positive or negative?
Positive!
Is E. coli positive or negative for starch agar test?
E.coli does not digest the starch on a starch agar plate, therefore it does not produce amylase making it negative.
