(Testing Turmeric Powder adulteration with Artificial Color)
- colordrops 3y agoI just tried this test with some turmeric powder I had at home and it failed according to what is shown in the video. I happened to have a lead testing kit, and it doesn't have lead though. The powder does have some ginger and other herbs in it, so apparently harmless adulterants other than lead can cause it to fail this visual test.
- Eisenstein 3y agoHave you checked that test with known lead chromate to rule out test error?
- colordrops 3y agoGood idea...
