|---|---|
| 1. Picric acid solution | a. Detection of antibiotic & sulphur residue in milk |
| 2. Bromo-cresol purple solution | b. Detection of urea in milk |
| 3. 1% solution of Iodine | c. Detection of starch in milk |
| 4. p-Dimethylamino benzaldehyde reagent | d. Detection of detergent in milk |
| 5. Delvokit test | e. Detection of gelatin in milk |
- 1-e, 2-d, 3-c, 4-b, 5-a — Correct Answer
- 1-a, 2-b, 3-c, 4-d, 5-e
- 1-c, 2-d, 3-e, 4-b, 5-a
- 1-e, 2-c, 3-d, 4-a, 5-b
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 1-e, 2-d, 3-c, 4-b, 5-a
The correct matching of milk adulteration detection tests is:
- 1. Picric acid solution → e. Detection of Gelatin in milk
- 2. Bromo-cresol purple solution → d. Detection of Detergent in milk
- 3. 1% solution of Iodine → c. Detection of Starch in milk (turns blue-black)
- 4. p-Dimethylamino benzaldehyde reagent → b. Detection of Urea in milk
- 5. Delvokit test → a. Detection of Antibiotic & Sulphur residue in milk
Memory Aid
- PiGe: Picric → Gelatin
- BroD: Bromo-cresol purple → Detergent
- IoS: Iodine → Starch (classic blue test)
- pDU: p-dimethyl → Urea
- DelA: Delvokit → Antibiotic
