2 1 A 15 cm length of Visking tubing was knotted at one end to make a small tube. A 10 cm3 sample of a mixture of active yeast in 2% sucrose solution was placed in the tube and the tube was knotted at the top. The tube was suspended in a small beaker containing limewater, as shown in Fig. 1.1. The apparatus was left for 30 minutes at room temperature (22 °C) and then observed.

    In the first lab, seven test tubes were attained and six of them were filled with the solutions that were listed (Na Pyruvate, MgSO4, NaF, Glucose, Water, and yeast suspension). The last test tube was filled with water. After they were filled with the solutions they were incubated at 37 degrees Celsius for about forty minutes. After the forty minutes passed take the test tubes and measure the height of the bubbles that formed in millimeters.…

    First, carbohydrate fermentation was tested in various sugar solutions (glucose, sucrose, arabinose, mannitol, lactose, and galactose) for the unknown. Cells were taken from culture and inoculated into vials filled with a phenol red sugar solution and a filled Durham tube which was turned upside down. The cells were left to grow overnight and observed the next day for color changes and bubble production which gave positive results for carbohydrate fermentation. The next test was a Methyl Red-Vogues Proskauer (MR-VP broth) test for which a sample of the unknown was inoculated into two separate tubes (one for the MR and one for the VP tube) and allowed to grow for at least 24 hours. Next the MR tube was given a methyl red reagent and mixed to observe a color change to bright red.…

    In bio lab, my lab partners and I did a lab experiment involving yeast fermentation. Fermentation is an anaerobic process to regenerate NAD+ to keep glycolysis active. Yeast preforms ethanol fermentation which create ethanol and NAD+. The class used six different types of sugars to determine which fuels fermentation by measuring the amount the carbon dioxide bubbles produced by the yeast. Yeast are single-cell fungi that cannot make their own food. They take the sugars in the surrounding environment and convert it into carbon dioxide. They use ethanol fermentation when no oxygen is available, which is different from eukaryotes in which they use lactic acid fermentation. The sugar my group used was fructose, a sugar most often found fruits. It is a five-sided sugar bound by glucopyranosyl and hydroxide ions. The five other sugars were sucrose, sucralose, aspartame, starch, and glucose. Sucrose is a disaccride found in table sugar. It is a five-sided sugar and a six-sided sugar held together by an oxygen. Sucralose is also a disaccride held together by an oxygen. The difference between sucralose and sucrose is that…

    Cellular Respiration Lab

    The two types of fermentation that are well known are alcoholic fermentation as well as lactic acid fermentation. Fermentation is vital for many organisms, such as yeast and bacteria, because it allows them to obtain energy required to carry on life processes. Alcoholic fermentation is especially important for human beings, as it is used to produce alcoholic beverages, bread, and many other everyday items that are consumed (Alba-Lois, 2010). On the other hand, lactic acid is a waste product of certain bacteria (Lactobacillales), which is utilized to create many dairy products such as yogurt and cheese. In addition, humans can resort to lactic acid fermentation when oxygen is limited, so it is used as an extra source to obtain oxygen. In our experiment we will be using yeast, a single-celled organism that utilizes sugar as a food source, and it produces energy substances through the breakdown of sugar molecules. Specifically, the type of sugar as a source of food, impacts the speed of fermentation in yeast. In this lab, we will calculate the rate of fermentation in yeast with different solutions of sugar, such as sucrose, fructose, and lactose with glucose being the control. It is important to humans that the yeast uses the best sugar source during fermentation, as it creates important everyday items we consume like bread, alcohol, and…

    Yeast Reaction Lab Report

    In this lab my group and I tested to see how yeast would react to different substances. Yeast is a fungi that releases carbon dioxide which can be used in the process of bread making. During this lab we used sugar, warm water, cornstarch, yeast, a gas sensor, plastic cylinders, and a laptop. The process of this lab was to create cellular respiration, which is what cells do to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. When yeast and a certain substance were combined, this substance together would release a certain amount of oxygen, this varied over the course of six minutes. We tested the yeast a total of four times using the gas sensor each time. The gas sensor would be left in the bottle for at least six minutes. The oxygen…

    Yeast is a fungus that exist almost everywhere in nature and it is also alive! For many years people baked bread, using yeast as an ingredient, without knowing just why it made bread dough bubble and rise. When you smell bread you mostly smell the scent of the yeast. This project looks how different conditions will cause the yeast to be most active during fermentation. We put a different mixture in each bottle along with 1/3 cup of water. My hypothesis was that when yeast is mixed with more than sugar or items that contain a lot of sugar, the fermentation of the yeast is affected. The experimental results supported my hypothesis by showing that when yeast and sugar was mixed with items such as, vinegar and salt, the fermentation was affected.…
