De-starching the Leaves of a Plant

De-starching the Leaves of a Plant 'De-starch (or Destarch) the leaves of a potted plant' is one of the preliminary steps in a photosynthesis experiment . Biology students often ask the following questions about de-starching. What is the definition of de-starching? Why it is necessary to de-starch the leaves of a plant before conducting photosynthesis experiments? What happens to the starch stores when the potted plant is deprived of light or carbon dioxide? How to de-starch the leaves of a plant? What is the definition of de-starching? De-starching is the process by which the starch reserves in a plant are depleted by depriving the plant of either light or carbon dioxide. Why is it necessary to de-starch the leaves of a plant before conducting photosynthesis experiments?

Ethanol Emulsion Test for Fats and Oils

Ethanol Emulsion Test for Fats and Oils The Ethanol Emulsion Test is a food test which determines the presence of a broad group of naturally occurring compounds known as lipids . Lipids consist of fats and oils . Other lipid tests include the Grease Spot Test and the Sudan Stain Test . The Grease spot test is performed on fats - lipids which are solid at room temperature. Sudan stain colours lipids red, but is a less common bench reagent than ethanol. The Ethanol Emulsion Test is the most common test amongst the three. Procedure Solid sample Crush the food sample and place in a dry test tube. Add ethanol to about 2 cm3 above the level of the sample and shake thoroughly. Allow the solid to settle (about 3 min) to allow the lipid to be extracted. Decant the ethanol into another test tube. Add 2 cm3 of deionized water to the second test tube ...
