sucrose, fructose, and lactose. Sucrose is also known as table sugar, it give the body the energy that fat can’t provide. With the right amount it help the body with physical and mental performance but too much of it can causes diseases like diabetes. Fructose is known for fruit sugar, its job is very similar to sucrose but fructose also help with aerobic respiration to create cellular energy. Lactose commonly found in dairy products, and the body use it by breaking down the lactose and turn it…
INTRODUCTION The objective of this experiment was to group a variety of samples of matter into subcategories of different macromolecules, which were determined by the use of various tests, as well as designated negative and positive control samples. Chemical samples may be experimentally identified as specific macromolecules through treatment with Benedict’s solution, the iodine test, or the Biuret test; each, when positive, identifying reducing sugars, starch or glycogen, and protein,…
Camel milk is three times higher in vitamin C than dairy animals ‘milk and 10 times higher in the press. Health Tips for Camel Milk Camel drain is protein 3.4%; fat 3.5%; lactose 4.4%; fiery remains 0.79%, while water covers 87% Table1. Synthetic piece of drain of various species Proximate Water % Protein % Fat % Ash % Lactose % Camel 86-88 3.0-3.9 2.9-5.4 0.6-0.9 3.3 Cow 85-87 3.2-3.8 3.7-4.4 0.7-0.8 4.8-4.9 Bison 82-84 3.3-3.6 7.0-11.5…
in Stearns et al “Introducing evolutionary thinking for medicine” we notice that evolution have a large contribute to human health and history. According to Stearns et al, ancestral human was unable to digest fresh milk after being weaned, because lactose in milk cause them…
The Carbohydrate Fermentation Test measured the ability of the bacteria to ferment glucose and mannitol carbohydrate and produce gas. Majority of microorganisms obtain energy from either aerobic or anaerobic respiration, or through fermentation. The different types of fermentation pathways used by bacteria can aid in differentiating them among groups or species of bacteria because each pathway depends on the complement of enzymes available for the cell (Department of Biological Sciences, 2015).…
Throughout the semester in the microbiology lab we have been taught how to conduct multiple experiments to identify microorganisms. Many of these experiments can be used on all different types of microorganisms but cumulatively they can help isolate a singular microorganism’s identity. At the beginning of the semester we were divided into several groups and were assigned an unknown of which we were tasked with identifying. Being assigned number 14 as our unknown, my group consisting of…
motility and sulfur was a major factor in determining that this was the unknown bacteria. At this point the other tests didn’t really matter, but for a greater certainty that this bacteria was indeed S. typhimurium the other tests were done as well. The lactose fermentation produced a negative result for acid and gas formation and the only other bacteria that showed a negative for both was Proteus vulgaris, but since that bacteria showed a positive result for indole this couldn’t be the…
sucrose was not a reducing sugar. This was as well expected since sucrose does not have a free carbonyl group and cannot convert to the open-chain form (Rizzo, 2015). Lactose is also another disaccharide, but one that should be a reducing sugar, as lactose is able to undergo oxidation. The results of the lab specified as such when the lactose sample changed to a red color. Starch is a polysaccharide and the DNSA result indicated it was not a reducing sugar. This was expected because the starch…
isolate. This protein source is the purest one available in the market. Whey protein isolates contain protein concentrations of 90% or higher. During the processing of whey protein isolate there is a significant removal of fat and lactose. As a result, individuals who are lactose-intolerant can often safely take these…
since we eat so much of it, we are putting our health on the line. One problem that the public faces is, what if someone is lactose intolerant? 4 out of 5 people are “forced” to switch due to their health conditions. That belief is also incorrect, butter contains less lactose when compared to margarine and if someone were to take a closer look, not only does margarine contain lactose but it also contains omega-3 which is a form of fish oil. That's not good for all the non-meat eaters in the…
