Enzymes In Seeds Kit Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Enzymes In Seeds Kit (Product Code: SLE/EBT/14) is a class practical kit used to show how enzymes break down stored starch in germinating seeds in secondary and pre-university biology labs. Students test pea and bean seeds with Lugol's solution in 15 three-part plastic test dishes, guided by 30 worksheets, which makes it a ready enzyme experiment kit for school classes. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is the Enzymes In Seeds Kit Used For?

Seeds store food largely as starch, and when they take up water and start to germinate, enzymes such as amylase convert that starch into sugars the young plant can use. The worksheets set out the procedure; a typical approach is to place seeds on moist absorbent paper, leave some to soak and sprout while others stay dry, and then test cut seeds with a drop of Lugol's solution. Iodine turns blue-black where starch is present, so a paler reaction in germinating seeds is visible evidence that enzymes have been at work. The three compartments of each test dish hold dry, soaked and sprouting seeds side by side for a fair comparison.

Testing both peas and beans adds a second variable and prompts discussion about differences between seed types. As an enzyme activity kit for biology classes, it links neatly to lessons on digestion, where the same starch-to-sugar reaction occurs. Lugol's solution stains skin and clothing, so students should wear gloves and eye protection, and seeds used in experiments must not be eaten.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The number of kits, bearing in mind each kit has 15 test dishes and 30 worksheets.
• Whether extra iodine reagent is wanted beyond the 3 bottles of Lugol's solution in each kit.
• The delivery country, since the kit contains a reagent and seeds that may be subject to import rules.
• Any safety documentation your school requires for the reagent.

Supplier

This kit is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana company trading as ScienceLab.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Enzymes In Seeds Kit demonstrate?
The Enzymes In Seeds Kit demonstrates enzyme activity in seeds: as pea and bean seeds germinate, their stored starch is broken down into sugars, and students detect the change because Lugol's solution stains starch blue-black.

What is included in the kit?
The Enzymes In Seeds Kit includes 15 three-part plastic test dishes, 5 pans with pea seeds, 5 pans with bean seeds, absorbent paper, 3 bottles of Lugol's solution and 30 student worksheets.

How many students can use it at once?
With 15 test dishes and 30 worksheets, the Enzymes In Seeds Kit suits a class of 30 working in pairs, each pair using one three-part dish to compare seeds side by side.

What is the shelf life of the Lugol's solution?
Shelf life of the Lugol's solution in the Enzymes In Seeds Kit depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep bottles tightly capped away from light.

Who supplies the Enzymes In Seeds Kit?
The Enzymes In Seeds Kit is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, which sources reagents, seeds and apparatus as ready-to-use practical kits for schools and colleges in India and international markets.

Are safety data sheets available?
Safety documentation is not listed among the Enzymes In Seeds Kit contents. If your school requires a safety data sheet for the Lugol's solution, request it through our contact page when you ask for a quotation.

Can the kit be exported?
Yes. The Enzymes In Seeds Kit can be supplied to international markets; because it contains a reagent and seeds, share the destination country in your enquiry so ScienceLab can advise on packing and any import requirements.
