Enzymes Abstract: The following 2 labs experimented the more enzymes and substrates added to the concentration will effect the reaction rate. Our second lab‚ we tested enzyme and substrate concentrations to determine the increase of temperature and inhibitor. The enzyme source used in both labs was peroxide‚ guaiacol is used as a substrate for peroxide. We used Guaiacol‚ turnip extract‚ peroxide and distilled water for enzyme and substrate concentration. In the second lab we used the same substances

In this lab we used a solution of lactase to test the chemical and physiological properties of this particular enzyme and determined whether the lactase came from human cells or bacterial cells. In the statistical analysis statistical formulas and techniques are used to analyze the significance of a set of data and the validity of the conclusions made based on that data. These are some terms and definitions that will be crucial to understanding the validity of this experiment. An enzyme is a protein

A small amount of the unknown (approximately the tip of the spatula was used for all the pigments) was added into each clean dry test tube. For the first test 1 mL of 3 M of HNO3 was added. As soon as the acid came into with the solid‚ the pigment was observed to dissolve while also turning the solution into a pale clear colour. The same amount was used for the HCl reagent. As soon as the acid touched the pigment it yielded in a clear solution (solid dissolved after a few shakes). When the KI was

HINTS ON WRITING YOUR REPORT Title: Enzyme activity Objective: To investigate the effect of temperature on amylase activity Design principle Background: Amylase activity products? (show the equation) Which factors will affect enzyme activity? How to study the rate of reaction? (e.g. rate of disappearance of substrates or rate of formation of products) Independent variable: temperature of reaction mixture or at which the enzymatic reaction occurs. It can be varied by setting water bath at

Jennifer Anatomy and Physiology Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The chemical reaction that is being studied is the hydrolysis of starch. The enzyme that is being studied is amylase. This experiment is looking at the effect of temperature on the rate of the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. My hypothesis is that the higher the temperature the faster the hydrolysis of the starch would occur. The rationale behind this is that heat

The Determination of the Effect of pH on Amylase Activity Grace Chung Abstract: Amylase is an important enzyme in the human body as it allows for the consumption of starch by breaking the polysaccharide down into maltose units. All enzymes‚ including amylase‚ function best at a certain optimal pH. Therefore‚ in this experiment‚ the effect of different pHs on the reaction rate of amylase is studied. It was hypothesized that the amylase-starch reaction would proceed fastest at a pH closest to

How Temperature Affects Amylase Activity Abstract This study of the effect of temperature on the enzyme amylase was performed to determine the relationship between the enzyme amylase and temperature. The rate of reaction was found to increase as the temperature of the environment was raised. As the temperature was raised from 5°C‚ 20°C‚ 35°C and finally to 80°C the rate of reaction followed this trend and also increased. However as predicted in the hypothesis of this experiment when the temperature

Introduction Enzymes are protein based structures that help speed up chemical reactions. They help these reactions keep up with the everyday metabolic needs and other like functions of organisms. Enzymes are also considered catalysts‚ due to the lowering in activation energy‚ in which they are not consumed or changed at any point during the reaction. These enzymes have three main protein structures that help keep them formed and intact. Stage 1 of these structures is the primary structure‚ which
