A,BA, B and CC are three biomolecules. The results of the tests performed on them are given below:
Molisch's test Barfoed Test Biuret Test
AA Positive Negative Negative
BB Positive Positive Negative
CC Negative Negative Positive

A,BA, B and CC are respectively:

Options

  1. AA=A = Glucose, B=B = Fructose C=C = Albumin
  2. BA=A = Lactose, B=B = Glucose, C=C = Albumin
  3. CA=A = Lactose, B=B = Glucose, C=C = Alanine
  4. DA=A = Lactose, B=B = Fructose, C=C = Alanine

Correct answer

B. A=A = Lactose, B=B = Glucose, C=C = Albumin

Step-by-step solution

Alanine does not show Biuret test because
Biuret test is used for deduction of peptide
linkage & alanine is amino acid.
Albumine is protein so have paptide linkage
so it gives positive Biuret test.
Positive Barfoed test is shown by
monosaccharide but not disaccharide. Positive
Molisch's test is shown by glucose.
