A positive test for starch indicates the presence of starch molecules in a sample, typically detected using iodine solution. When iodine comes into contact with starch, it forms a blue-black complex due to the interaction between iodine molecules and the helical structure of starch. This color change signifies that starch is present in the sample being tested.
