Macromolecules and Lab

Today in class, we went through the slides of macromolecules and isomers. We went through basic knowledge such as structural polymers, geometric polymers and how different isomers are formed. For basic structures and functions of macromolecules, we went through dehydration, hydrolysis, DNA, RNA and other basic informations.
For the second part of the class, we finished a lab, and the objective is to identify what is in 16 different substances, whether its protein, starch, glucose and lipid or any combinations of these substances. We use different tests to test the existence of these substances including biuret, benedicts, sudan III and iodine.
