## Description

desertcart.com: Phenylthiourea (PTC) Test Paper for Genetic Taste Testing [Vial for 100 Paper Strips] : Health & Household

Review: My students loved it! - I’m a science teacher. While studying genetics, we did this test as a lab. They loved it! It was a great experiment. Would totally recommend this for an easy lab day and a fun project to do with students. The price is easy on our pockets as well, so will definitely repeat this experiment in the future.
Review: A fun thing - It's a fun little thing and probably works. Neither myself or my fiance had a reaction, but I feel like I'm overly sensitive to bitter things. Either I'm wrong and I'm just THAT picky or these didn't work, but I'd lean towards the former.

## Features

- Are you a supertaster? Find out with this simple and fun test!
- Put one strip on your tongue for 10 second and if you taste bitterness you have this characteristic homozygous dominant or heterozygous
- 100 x 1.75 inch pre-cut strips (which can each be cut in half) enable you to test all of your friends, family, and classes very economically
- Perfect for demonstrating genetic pedigrees and learning about genotypes and phenotypes

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this product gluten free?  I have a student with celiac.**
A: The manufacturing facility where the PTC paper is produced is a typical manufacturing site.  We don’t manufacture nuts or other products usually associated with allergy concerns.  Please note, however, that the facility is not certified or considered an allergy-friendly manufacturing facility.  In addition, the raw materials used in producing the PTC taste paper (cellulose and PTC) are not procured in any special fashion.  We have no assurance that they were produced in an allergy-free environment, and as such it may be best for this student to abstain from the activity.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fun thing
*by M***Y on November 20, 2025*

It's a fun little thing and probably works. Neither myself or my fiance had a reaction, but I feel like I'm overly sensitive to bitter things. Either I'm wrong and I'm just THAT picky or these didn't work, but I'd lean towards the former.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ NOT a pH Strip!!!
*by Q***E on April 20, 2020*

Works great! Some reviewers are confusing this with pH strips and giving this a bad review, they're not pH strips! Read the title! This is to test if you have the gene that allows you to taste PTC, a bitter synthetic compound, and that works great; I've tried it with around 20 people. Wonderful for biology or chemistry classes or clubs. Or just to watch your friends try it.
