Starch/Amylase Experiment Report Objective: The purpose of the starch/amylase experiment was to simulate and observe the process of enzyme digestion. Materials: * 1 small beaker * 2 large beakers * 2 cut pieces of soaked dialysis tubing * 2 dialysis tubing clamps or pieces of twine * 2 clean plastic pipettes * 1 bottle of Lugol’s solution * 2 glucose test strips Procedure: Begin the experiment by placing 4 full pipettes worth of cooked starch in a beaker. Then‚ use

Charlene Villanueva - Biology Charlene Villanueva - Biology Starch‚ Glycogen and Cellulose Independent Research A polysaccharide is a long chain of monosaccharide molecules‚ held by glycosidic bonds. They are usually not sweet in taste‚ insoluble in water and often do not produce crystals when water is taken out. Starch Starch is a complex solid carbohydrate‚ consisting glucose molecules held together by glycosidic bonds. It is a storage polysaccharide. They can be found in fruits‚ seeds‚ roots

Bread contains starch. The starch content in bread is derived from the starchy endosperm of wheat. Refined breads have the bran and germ removed from the wheat in order to produce softer‚ silkier flour. there is a lot more food containing starch like: Starchy foods such as potatoes‚ bread‚ cereals‚ rice and pasta should make up about a third of the food you eat. Where you can‚ choose wholegrain varieties‚ or eat potatoes with their skins on for more fibre. Starch is the most common form of

Introduction This practical experiment was performed in an attempt to observe how enzymes (starch phosphorylase in particular) are affected by varying its temperature before introducing it to the substrate it will be reacting with. A catalyst (enzyme) is a substance that changes the rate of a reaction; for a reaction to take place at all‚ the enzyme must first come into contact with the substrate. Enzymes are subject to a number of factors which effect how fast they can cause a reaction with a substrate;

Property of Starch The experiment obtained Starch to have a bulk density of 0.48g/ml‚ i.e. 0.48g of Starch occupies 1ml of water. This value represented the density of starch incorporating the voids. The tapped density was found to be 0.60g/ml. This value represented the density of starch excluding the voids and intra- particle pores greater than molecular and atomic dimensions in the crystal lattice. This simple means‚ by reducing the number of intermolecular spaces between the starch particles‚

One example would be the “Biodegradable plastic bags” made from the starch of the Cassava plant (Manihot esculent). The new plastic has been able to capture the interests of buyers‚ enabling it to advocate the benefits and obvious effects one can receive from using an eco friendly product.
