Folin-Wu test tube

This is special type of test tube .
The constricted part of the tube prevents

cupric oxide, which on reaction with the phosphomolybdic
acid produces a blue color. The blue color is produced due
to reduction of molybdate ions.

The intensity of color is directly proportional to amount of
