operations that minimize the adverse effects of processing. The effect of food processing on finished product quality ultimately determines the usefulness and commercial viability of that unit process operation. In the particular case of food drying this indicates that loss of volatiles and flavours‚ changes in colour and texture‚ and a decrease in nutritional value. Furthermore‚ residual enzyme activity and microbial activity in dried foods are essential parameters that effect product quality and shelf life

investigation was to investigate the effect of substrate concentration Hydrogen Peroxide H O (in %) on the rate of reaction of the enzyme catalase (in 1/mean time). Prediction: As the substrate concentration (hydrogen peroxide) in % increases the rate of reaction in 1/mean rate increases until the solution becomes saturated with the substrate hydrogen peroxide. When this saturation point is reached‚ then adding extra substrate will make no difference. The rate steadily increases when more substrate

Lab 5: Osmosis Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to familiarize you with osmosis and‚ specifically‚ what happens to cells when they are exposed to solutions of differing tonicities. Hypothesis: If we add higher concentrations of sugar to the dialysis tubing‚ then the net movement of coffee into the dialysis tubing will increase. Materials scale or balance 24" dialysis tubing 4 transfer pipets sugar scissors rubber bands four coffee cups - they need to be roughly the same size

Low Interest Rates Long Term Effect "The prolonged low-interest rate environment is transforming the banking industry from savings and loans to service and loans‚" said Dan Geller‚ executive vice president of research firm Market Rates Insight in San Anselmo‚ Calif. (Fitzpatrick) Consumers may think that the continued low interest rates are a profound thing‚ but banks on the other hand think much differently. Consumers are refinancing their houses at rates as low as 2.875%‚ while big banks like

Effects of Activators and Ethanol on Fermentation Rates In this lab we examined how the rate of fermentation is influenced by the type of substrate‚ and activators and inhibitors. We used four fermentation tubes in which we separately combined yeast with MgSO4‚ pyruvate‚ ethanol‚ and glucose. At five minute intervals we recorded the volume of gas produced in each fermentation tube. Our results are displayed in the graph. Our results supported the prediction that pyruvate is an activator

Nicole Reardon Biology 1520‚ Section P2 Effects of penicillin and temperature on the growth of Escherichia coli Abstract Bacteria growth is known to be either augmented or impeded by a number of various factors; in this experiment‚ our group tested how E. coli is affected by penicillin as well as how different temperatures can affect bacteria growth. We know that antibiotics are generally specialized against certain types of bacteria—more specifically‚ some are most effective against Gram-negative

Can tegu lizards maintain an elevated body temperature during their reproductive season? Experiment: Dr. Glenn Tattersall and a team of researchers in Rio Claro‚ Brazil studied changes in the heart rate and body temperature of tegu lizards (Salvator merianae)‚ by implanting lizards bred in captivity with specialized electronic chips. One group of lizard lived in an entirely outdoor environment for one year. Three other groups that were subjected to alternating indoor and outdoor environments over

EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY THE EFFECT OF THE GOVERNMENT HEALTH EXPENDITURES ON MORTALITY RATE. Submitted to: Dr. Peter Mihalyi Submitted by: Narmina Rustamova Abstract. In this paper I analyze the impact of the government healthcare expenditures‚ as a percentage of gross domestic product‚ on mortality rate per 1000 population in the age group of 15-60. In order to make the estimation results more specific I add the employment rate of females to the initial regression

The Effect of Boiling on the Rate of Aerobic Respiration of Germinating Peas Abstract Aerobic respiration is an enzyme mediated process during which glucose is used to make ATP to fuel the cells energy needs. Germination is one of such processes that make use of aerobic respiration and because certain factors can affect aerobic respiration‚ it would also affect germination. In this experiment‚ we examined the effects of boiling on the rate of aerobic respiration of germinating peas. Unboiled
