Requirement-
Test tube with stand ,conical flask, funnel , filter
paper, water bath , wheat flour , gram flour , rice and
potatoes and 1% iodine solution.
Procedure-
1. Take 5 gms of wheat flour in 100 ml conical flask
and add 30 ml of distilled water.
2. Boil the contents of the flask for about 5 minutes.
3. Filter the above contents after cooloing,the
filtrate obtained is wheat flour extract.
4. To the wheat flour extract. taken in a conical
flask. Add 5 ml of 1% aq. NaCl solution.
5. Keep this flask in a water bath maintained at a
temperature of 50-60 degree celsius.Add 2 ml of
malt extract.
6. After 2 minutes take 2 drops of the reaction
mixture and add to diluted iodine solution.
7. Repeat step 6 after every 2 minutes.When no
bluish colour is produced the fermentation is
complete.
8. Record the total time taken for completion of
fermentation.
9. Repeat the experiment with gram flour
extract,rice flour extract, potato extract and
record the observations
