Why did a solution of saliva and oats test positive with benedict's test and iodine test if the oats alone tested positive only in the iodine test and the saliva alone was negative for both?
Saliva contains the enzyme amylase which breaks down starches in oats into simple sugars like glucose, which can then react with Benedict's solution to give a positive test result. The iodine test detects the presence of starch, which is in oats but not in saliva, explaining why the combination tested positive in both tests.

This test is commonly employed in blood transfusion compatibility testing and in diagnosing hemolytic anemia or Rh incompatibility in pregnancy. By mixing the patient's serum with red blood cells of known antigenicity, the test identifies whether antibodies are present, which could lead to agglutination of the red blood cells.
