  • The increase in temperature disrupts the intermolecular hydrogen bonds. and hydrophobic interactions of proteins, lowering the rate of atoms' vibrations.
    False - vibrations are increased
  • Organic solvent, e.g., ethanol, disrupts the intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the secondary and tertiary structure of albumin.
    True
  • Heavy metal ions, e.g., Cu2+, Ag+, and Pb2+, precipitate proteins from the solution because proteins become cross-linked by these heavy metals.

    True
  • The addition of NaOH disrupts albumin's hydrogen bonds, leading to denaturation; hence, more precipitate was observed.

    True
  • HCI was added to acidify the albumin solutions. Exposure to strong acids will disrupt albumin's hydrogen bonds, resulting in denaturation.

    True
  • The positive result in Millon's test on the precipitate from the salting-out process indicates the presence of tyrosine.
    True
  • In the Salting out Process, the solubility of albumin decreases when the solution is saturated with ammonium sulfate.
    True
  • Peptone is pink with biuret reagent, which confirms the presence of peptide linkages in its structure.
    True
  • Peptones are precipitated from the solution by partial saturation with ammonium sulfate. At the same time, proteoses fail to react even when fully saturated with ammonium sulfate.

    False - proteoses are precipitated from solution by half saturation with ammonium sulfate, while peptones don't react even with fully saturated ammonium sulfate.
  • Albumin is denatured when heated.
    True
  • The source of nitrogen in the Nitrogen test is the soda lime.
    True
  • Seliwanoff's test confirms the presence of aldoses.
    False - Both
  • An alkaline environment is required for Moore's test.

    True
  • Tollen's Phloroglucin reaction is a test confirming the presence of sugars with a free aldehyde.
    False - It's a test to distinguish pentoses and hexoses
  • Coagulation is a reversible process that is maximum at the isoelectric pH of protein

    False - Irreversible.
