EFFECT OF pH LEVEL ON THE ENZYME ACTIVITY OF INVERTASE John Dale Cruz‚ Michael Ray Dela Cruz‚ Karen Angelica Domalaon‚ Abegail Dulay‚ Shirley Ann Felipe Group 5 2C Medical Technology Biochemistry Laboratory ABSTRACT Invertase is a type of enzyme‚ a natural catalytic agent for biochemical reactions‚ can be obtained in Baker’s Yeast. Determination of the effect of pH on invertase activity is the primary objective of the experiment. Dinitrosalicyclic acid (DNS) Assay method is utilized to monitor

Objective: To investigate how pH affects the rate of protein digestion Hypothesis: I predict that since pepsin breaks down the material the quickest at a pH of 2 in the stomach‚ test tubes #3 will reduce the greatest because it has pepsin to further break down the egg. Whereas the other test tubes will have a smaller reduction. I think test tube #2 will have the second largest reduction rate and then #6 because they all will have a greater rate at breaking down the material‚ Then‚ I predict the

In this experiment‚ we used methyl benzoate from the last experiment with HNO3 and H2SO4 to synthesize methyl 3-nitrobenzoate. First we added methyl benzoate to 12 mL cooled conc. Sulfuric acid in a flask. In a separate flask‚ we made a solution of 4 mL conc. Sulfuric acid and 4 mL nitric acid and then added dropwise to the solution of methyl benzoate in an ice bath on a stir plate while maintaining the temperature of reaction between 5-15 °C. After the addition was complete we took the flask out

Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity Athenaa Jeyachandran Mr.Menes Course Code January 21st‚ 2013 The Effect on Enzyme Activity Due to Temperatures Purpose: The purpose of this lab experiment is to examine how different temperatures affect enzyme activity using hydrogen peroxide. Hypothesis: My hypothesis for this experiment is that temperatures near body temperature is when enzyme activity will be at its highest. I believe this will occur because in our body‚ enzymes

pH Affecting on Amylase Enzyme Is there a difference in the concentration of pH in the amylase enzyme activity? The null hypothesis would be that there will be no difference in the concentration of pH and alternative hypothesis would be that there will be a difference in the concentration of pH. The predication if that there will be a difference in the concentration of pH. The pH affects on enzyme activities‚ one of the enzyme that was used in the process was amylase. When a serial dilution was

The Effects of Varying pH on Enzyme Activity A lab was conducted to test different pH balances on an enzyme. Introduction: Enzymes are protein catalysts that speed up a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process. Enzymes are three-dimensional structures that consist of one or more polypeptide chains. The polypeptide chains form an active site (where a substrate will fit into). Enzyme molecules are folded into a very specific shape held together by the different forces of attraction

ABSTRACT This experiment was conducted to synthesize methyl benzoate form benzoic acid and methanol by using the Fischer esterification method. The Fischer exterification technique is utilized in the academic and industrial settings due to the simplified synthesis and safety parameters of the overall reaction. Both benzoic acid and methanol are relatively cheap to obtain from a commercial source as well as being easy to store with a relatively long shelf life. The Fischer esterification method is

Effects of pH on fungal amylase activity BI 211 November 25‚ 2011 Introduction In recent years‚ the uses of microorganisms have become a huge importance to industry and sparked a large interest into the exploration of enzyme activity in microorganisms. Amylase is one of the most widely used enzyme required for the preparation of fermented foods. Apart from food and starch industries‚ in which demand for them is increasing continuously‚ amylase is also used in

Sodium chloride‚ also known as salt‚ common salt‚ table salt‚ or halite‚ is an ionic compound with the formula NaCl. Sodium chloride is the salt most responsible for the salinity of the ocean and of the extracellular fluid of many multicellular organisms. As the major ingredient in edible salt‚ it is commonly used as a condiment and food preservative. [edit] Properties Thermal conductivity of pure NaCl as a function of temperature has a maximum of 2.03 W/(cm K) at 8 K and decreases to 0.069 at 314
