Requirement: Chemical: Strach, Salivary amylase diluted, 0.1N Iodine Solution, Acetic Acid, Hydrochloric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Phosphate buffer 6.8 pH, Distill Water etc. Apparatus: Test Tube, Beaker, Water Bath, Watch Glass, Test Tube Holder, Glass Rod. Principle: Enzyme are responsible to regulate rate of reaction and Amylase break down Starch to simple sugar. On digestion of starch chracterstic inference will not be observed. Procedure: > Take 4 test tube with 1 ml of 1 % Starch sol
