Test for proteins (Buiret test)
chromatography. (usually proteins).
TLC.
◦ add sample to water in a restube. ↗ NaOH and then also 4 (Buiret solution).
◦ Add the Buinet solution to the mixture
→ nF = distance moved by substance ◦ If protein present ⇒ blue to purple/violet
'solvent.

distance moved by solvent front.
solvent test for lipids_ (emulsion)
i front.
→ larger molecules slower than smaller ones.
start line
→ UV light used or nin-hydrin spray. ◦ add sample to ethanol & shake
• Add this mixture to distilled water
→ affinity + solubility balance. • A milky-white emulsion = + test
⇒ lipids present.
bonds → glycosidic
Reducing sugars • Non Reducing sugars
→ Hydrolysis is when water is
Quantitative test
↳ condensation reaction.
(donate e- ) ULRIG to a test tube.
◦ Add HU to solution and heat conduct a serial dilution to get known concentrations
added to break the chemical bond
> Lalibrate the colourmeter
(in water bath) for 10-Is mins • Fill ¾ of the cuvette with distilled water eg. Glucose
Benedict' test
◦ After removing from water bath Add set the absorbance to 525mm (or transmission)
ms04 → 9,9 between two molecules
Neutralise with Naoh. Use a red filter for the reducing sugar's test.
