This lesson is ideal for students who are new to fat and protein food tests. This lesson links well to my starch and sugar food test lab lesson: Starch and Sugar Lab Lesson. The lesson introduces new keywords such as ‘biuret’ and ‘ethanol’ and engages students through linked activities which are fully resourced and come with accompanying answers.

The resource is a Powerpoint presentation with an accompanying PDF copy, so the resource can be edited and there is also a print-ready version.

Please feel free to ask any further questions before purchasing and please note that this lesson includes American spellings.
