Objective Barfoed’s test is a biochemical test devised by the Swedish physician C.T Barfoed (1815-1899). The test is a chemical test used to differentiate between monosaccharides (simple sugars) and disaccharides, particularly between monosaccharides containing an aldehyde group and those that do not. The main objective of Barfoed’s test is to distinguish between monosaccharides and certain … Read more

Objective Molisch’s test is a sensitive chemical test, named after Australian Botanist Hans Molisch. It is a chemical test used to detect the presence of carbohydrates, specifically the presence of any form of carbohydrate that can be hydrolyzed to form simple sugars, such as glucose. The objective of Molisch’s test is to identify the presence … Read more

Principle Of Iodine Test For Starch The starch-iodide complex as charge is transferred between the starch and iodide ions (tri-iodide or pentaiodide). The transfer of the charge between the starch and the iodide ion changes the spacing between energy levels/orbitals.  This change results in the starch-iodide complex absorbing light at different wavelength resulting in an … Read more

What Is A Conductor? In physics and electrical engineering, a conductor is an object or type of material that allows the flow of charge (electricity) through them. Conductors have free electrons on its surface which allows current to pass through. This is the reason why they are able to conduct electricity. Conductors also have can … Read more

Clipper and clamper circuits are both types of electronic circuits used to modify or shape waveforms. They are often used in signal processing and communication systems. Let us talk about how they differ from each other. What Is A Clipper? The protection of the electronic devices is achieved through the use of clipper circuits. Clipper … Read more

Amoebic Dysentery Amoebic dysentery also referred to as Amebiasis is an infectious disease caused by a protozoan parasite referred to as Entamoeba histolytica, which causes both intestinal and extraintestinal infections. Some of the risk factors for amebiasis include consuming contaminated food or water, association with food handlers, whose hands are contaminated, fertilizer made of human … Read more

What Is Francis Turbine Francis turbine is a type of water turbine that was developed by James B. Francis in Lowell, Massachussets United States Of America. Francis turbine is combines both the concepts of impulse and reaction turbine, whereby the blades rotate using both reaction and impulse force of water flowing through them. In this … Read more

Single Mode Fibers In fiber optic communication, a single-mode optical fiber is an optical fiber designed to carry only a single mode of light, the transverse mode. Single –mode fibers achieve large transmission capacities, transports coherent light and maintain state of polarization over a longer distance and can be used for a variety of sensing … Read more

What Is Diarrhea? Diarrhea also referred to as loose motions or simple the flux, is one of the most common health complaints. It can range from a mild, temporary condition to a potentially life-threatening condition. Diarrhea is characterized by abnormally loose or watery stool that occur more than three times a day. Most cases of … Read more

What is Mass? Mass is defined as the amount of physical matter contained in the body of an object. Mass of a physical body is usually measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg). Mass has no any relationship with gravity, centrifugal force or any other force. In the same regard, these forces have zero effect … Read more
