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.


What substance is used to test for starch?

The presence of starch can be tested with the help of Iodine. Similarly Benedict's test solution is also used to detect the presence of starch.


Iodine and Benedict's solution were both used to test for certain nutrients in a sample of food If both tests were positive for the nutrients the sample must contain?

Both iodine and Benedict's solution test for different nutrients in the sample. Iodine is used to test for the presence of starch, while Benedict's solution is used to test for the presence of reducing sugars like glucose. Therefore, if both tests are positive, the sample must contain both starch and reducing sugars.


Does garlic have starch or sugar in it?

I am not sure about the sugars but I have tested Garlic for starch using the iodine test and it shows no sign of containing such. A Benedict's test can be done to determine if it contains sugars.


Is iodine an indicator of glucose?

Iodine is not an indicator of glucose. Iodine is primarily used as an indicator for the presence of starch in a solution through the formation of a blue-black color complex. Glucose can be tested using methods such as Benedict's solution, Fehling's solution, or glucose test strips.


What carbohydrate does not react with Iodine or Benedict's solution?

Sucrose


What is the difference between iodine solution and Benedict's solution?

Iodine solution is used to test for the presence of starch, turning blue-black in the presence of starch. Benedict's solution is used to test for reducing sugars such as glucose, turning from blue to brick red in the presence of reducing sugars.

Do proteins give positive iodine tests?

Yes, proteins can give a positive iodine test. When iodine reacts with proteins, it forms a complex that results in a brown color change, indicating a positive test for proteins.
