Objectives of the Project Report
The main objective of this chemistry project

report is “To Study the effect of salivary
amylase on starch ” and
1) To study digestion of starch by saliva.
2) To study the effect of temperature on the digestion of
starch by saliva.
3) To study the effect of pH on the salivary digestion of
starch.
Introduction
Every Health book insists on the chewing of food. The

act of chewing stimulates the excretion of saliva. Saliva
mixes up with the food and helps its digestion. That is,
the enzyme ptyalin or amylase present in human saliva
hydrolyzes the big molecules of food into many
molecules. For example starch into mono-saccnaricies
maltose and glucose; proteins into amino acids and fats
into fatty acids and glycerol. Thus saliva not only helps
in digestion of food but convert it into energy
generating substances. Further, enzymes and their
activity are very sensitive to temperature and ph. Even
a slight variation in these two factors, can disturb the
action of enzymes. In other words, digestion of food by
salivary amylase is also effected by pH and temperature
and can be verified experimentally. For example,
hydrolysis of starch can be verified by testing it with
iodine solution. Starch forms blue coloured complex
with iodine. If no starch is present in a system it will not
give blue colour with iodine.
Material Required
The requirements for experiment of Chemistry

Project Report are as under:
1) Test tubes
2) Test tube stand
3) One dropper
4) Beaker
5) Stop watch
6) Starch and Iodine solution
7) Thermometer
8) Dilute HCL and Dilute NaOH solution.

Chemistry Experiment 1 Procedure
Procedure for Chemistry Experiment 1 is:
1) Collection of Saliva– Rinse mouth throughly with cold

water and ensure that it does not contain any food
particles. Now take about 20ml of lupe warm water in
the mouth and gaggle for about three minutes so that
saliva mixes up well with it. Spit this into a beaker.
Filter, if there is any suspended impurity clear filtrate is
saliva solution and contains enzyme ptyalin.
2) Preparation of starch solution – Take about 0.5g of
starch in 100ml beaker and add enough water to make a
paste. Dilute the paste by adding 50ml water and boil for
about 5 minutes.
3) Digestion of starch :-
(a)Take 5ml of the starch solution in a test tube. Add 2ml
of saliva solution into it. Mix the solutions well by
shaking the tube carefully and start a step watch.
(b) After one minute take out two drops of the mixture
solution from the test tube with the help of a dropper
and transfer it into another test tube containing about
one 1ml of 1% iodine solution. Note the colour
produced, if any.
(c)Repeat this test after every one minute taking two
drops of the mixture solution and fresh 1% iodine
solution continue until the test shows no blue colour.
Record the time and blue colour intensity.
Observation
Time Passed 1 2 3 4
after Mixing Minute Minute Minute Minute
Colour Deep Blue Light No Blue
Intensity Blue Blue
Absence of blue colour on addition to iodine solution

means absence of starch in the mixture solution. That is
whole of the starch has got digested or hydrolysed.
Chemistry Experiment 2
Procedure: -Effect of temperature on the digestion of starch

by saliva.
1) Take three test tubes and label these 1, 2, and 3.

2) Take 5ml of the starch solution, 2ml of the saliva solution
and 5ml of water in each test tube.
3) Place test tube Number 1 in water at room temperature, test
tube Number 2 in a beaker containing water at 500 C and
test tube Number 3 in boiling water.
4) After 5 minutes, observe the colour change on mixing two
drops of the mixture of every tube with one ml of 1%
iodine solution. Note the intensity of blue coloured form.
Conclusion
Starch get hydrolysed by saliva amylase

Chemistry Experiment 3
Procedure: - To study the effect of pH on the salivary

digestion of starch
1) Take three test tubes and label these 1, 2, and 3.

2) Add 5ml of the starch solution, 2ml of the saliva
solution in each test tube.
3) Now ass 2ml of water in test tube Number 1 2ml of
Dilute HCL in test tube Number 2 and 2ml of Dilute
NaOH solution in test tube Number 3 and shake
carefully.
4) Keep the three test tubes in water at room temperature
for about 10 minutes.
5) Add 2 drops of the solution of each test tube with 1%
iodine solution and observe the colour change
Conclusion
Temperature effects the digestion of starch by salivary

with increase in temperature salivary amylase get
inactivated and process of digestion do not take place.
