What would be the effect of schiwanoffs test on inulin?

Schwanoff's test is a method used to detect the presence of inulin in a solution. When inulin is present, it will react to form a precipitate with the reagents used in the test, indicating a positive result. This test exploits inulin's unique properties as a polysaccharide that is not hydrolyzed by human enzymes, allowing it to be identified in various biological samples. Thus, a positive Schwanoff's test would confirm the presence of inulin.
