    temperature and the enzyme activity of amylase. This was achieved by attaining amylase enzyme‚ starch solution and potassium iodide (determines if enzymes hydrolyses the starch solution)‚ water bath and a hot plate. The temperatures used for this experiment were room temperature‚ 37oC‚ 60oC‚ 80oC‚ and 90oC. The hypothesis developed was that as the temperature increased‚ so will enzyme activity. Therefore‚ the ability of the enzyme to break down the starch solution will occur at a faster rate because

    The Rate of Reaction that Enzyme Concentration‚ pH‚ and Temperatures Have on the Amylase Enzymes Color Disappearance Abstract: Compare reaction rates of the concentrations‚ pH’s‚ and temperatures of the enzyme Amylase. At what concentrates do the substrate molecules collide with each other‚ making the reaction possible? At what pH levels do the 3D molecular structures change breaking the H-bond and/or denaturize? At what temperatures do the collisions of the substrate molecules happen

    Purpose The purpose of the lab is to determine how different factors affect the digestion of starch. Starch is a type of complex carbohydrate with large polysaccharide molecules that are made up of hundreds of glucose subunits. The digestion of starch begins in the mouth with the enzyme amylase and continues in the small intestine. Maltose‚ a disaccharide‚ breaks down the large polysaccharide molecules. Maltase‚ also found in the small intestine‚ splits each maltose molecule

    Effects Environmental Temperature and pH have on the Activity of Porcine Pancreatic Amylase Introduction There are many types of enzymes and each has a specific job. Enzymes are particular types of proteins that help to speed up some reactions‚ such as reactants going to products. One of them is the amylase enzyme. Amylases are found in saliva‚ and pancreatic secretions of the small intestine. The function of amylase is to break down big molecules of starch into small molecules like glucose; this

    Cynthia Vang Derrick 24 Title: Digestion of Starch Problem: Hypothesis: If synthetic saliva breaks down the cracker the most Then more of the cracker should be digested Because synthetic saliva contains amylase‚ and amylase helps break down complex carbohydrates. Interpretation: Data Table: The results of the iodine and Benedict’s tests for the Carbohydrate lab Test Tube contents and number Color of iodine test Color of Benedict’s test How much is present? 0= none 1= present

    of Human saliva (Salivary amylase) against Temperature Proponent: Ian Angelo P. Dela Cruz BS-Biology 1-3 Prof. McJervis S. Villaruel Professor – BIOL2015(Lab) ABSTRACT This report entitled “Enzymatic activity of Human saliva (Salivary amylase) against temperature” aims to know and observe the enzyme activity of the human saliva. The research only included the use of starch-agar as the medium to observe enzyme activity during the experiment. Five starch-agar plates were prepared

    It about modified starch Journal of Agricultural Science Vol. 2‚ No. 2‚ June 2010 requirements are properties such as viscosity‚ resistant to shear‚ low pH and high temperature. Accordingly‚ varieties of modified starches are used in food industry. Table 1 lists some of the modified starches that can be prepared from different sources to meet the marketing-related requirements. Today‚ modified food starch is a food additive and limits of its modification‚ use and labeling are clearly defined

    temperature increases‚ the kinetic energy of the molecules increase so they move around more meaning that there are more collisions between the enzymes and substrates molecules and therefore more reactions. pH is a factor because the different types of enzymes work best in different pH environments‚ a change in pH interferes with the shape of the enzymes active site (where it bonds and reacts with substrates) and therefore does not fit the shape of the substrate as well so the enzyme is unable to work on the

    hydrolysis of starch is carried out under milder conditions: lower temperatures (up to 1000C)‚ normal pressure‚ pH of the medium around 6 – 8. At the same time enzymatic hydrolysis is characterized by high reaction rate‚ high stability of the enzyme towards the denaturizing action of solvents‚ detergents‚ proteolytic enzymes‚ and a decrease in the viscosity of the reaction medium at higher temperatures‚ etc. Most often‚ enzymatic hydrolysis is carried out with the enzyme α-amylase from different

    Fungal Amylase and hydrolysis of Starch Abstract This experiment consisted of setting up a control group of starch in various temperature and then placing both fungal amylases and bacterial amylases in a mixture of starch and placing the solution of amylase and starch in various temperatures of water. After a certain amount of time- different amount of time needs to be used in order to have reliable results- iodine is added in a well on spot plates‚ then two drops of the mixture of amylase-starch
