I thought I'd take a moment to clarify what this procedure is all about.
Essentially this starch assay is a reaction in 3 steps:
I stopped right after the first reaction; after the fourth reaction, I will be left with samples that will be pink in color, in varying shades. I will be using a spectrophotometer to measure the absorbency of the samples, and this measurement will be proportional to how much starch is in each.
