1. Bell ringer Risk Assessment Food tests
Identify a strategy to test for unknown substances (which test would you carry out first?)

2. Lesson objectives
carry out tests for reducing sugars and non- reducing sugars, the iodine test for starch, the emulsion test for lipids and the biuret test for proteins to identify the contents of solutions

3. Tests for biological molecules
1. Carefully follow the instructions to carry out tests for biological molecules.
2. Use your knowledge from practical 2.1 to identify the substances in practical 2.2
3. Write a full lab report on practical 2.2
Use a hot plate instead
of a Bunsen burner!
DISPOSAL
Solutions for the following tests can be washed down the drain with EXCESS WATER: Starch, Protein, Lipids
DO NOT WASH AWAY THE BENEDICT’S SOLUTION
