Forensic Food Analysis Conclusions Macromolecule tests indicated that all four victims consumed an appetizer containing glucose because the Benedict's reagent turned orange when investigating their stomach contents.
2
The only appetizer that contained glucose monomers was the candied sugar cocktail, therefore, it must be concluded that this was the poisoned food.
3
The candied sugar cocktail was prepared by Jim Lockpicker so he must be the person who poisoned the Parker's Party.
4
This lab allowed us to conduct tests for the monomers and forms of three of the four major macromolecules (SB1c). Benedict's – glucose monomers of carbohydrates Lugol's Iodine – starch form of carbohydrate Biuret – amino acid monomers of proteins If a macromolecule were a train, then the cars on the train would be the monomers.
5
Macromolecules are polymers made of monomers. Macromolecules are bigger molecules made of smaller pieces called monomers.
