The ability to taste Thiourea and Phenylthiocarbamide is genetic.

These PTC (Thiourea-Phenylthiocarbamide) Taste Papers are either bitter or tasteless depending on the genetics & heredity of taster. Give students the opportunity to discover whether they are a taster or non-taster in comparison with the rest of the class.

• Each individual should take the taste test only once.
• Paper strip dimensions 9mm x 50mm (25 strips on each pad).
• Pack of 100 strips

A non-laboratory classroom should ideally be used for the taste test, ensuring students have clean hands and use clean, sterile forceps to handle the strips.

Please note: the date on the label is the production date, not an expiry date.
