Room Temperature Lab Report
The first step to this experiment is being completely protected from any possible harm that could possibly occur as a consequence of the practical test. Therefore, a lab coat, safety gloves with clean hands and goggles must be worn before starting the experiment.
The initial room temperature should be calculated using a thermometer and a marker is used to name beakers 1 and 2. Divide the 10 test tubes into two groups and name them 1-5 in both groups. 5 different stopwatches are used to record the time for the disappearance of the blue-black color in test tubes, name them 1-5 also. Stopwatch 1 corresponds to test tube 1 in beaker 1 i.e. 0°C and the room temperature (that should be around 20-25°C), and stopwatch 5 corresponds to test tube 5 in a water bath of 80°C. Record the room temperature.

Beaker two is only filled with tap water. 3 Put a thermometer in both beakers and after one or two minutes, see if they have reached 0°C and room temperature. Once the beakers have reached the desired temperatures (0°C and room temperatures), the experiment may start.
The amylase and starch solutions should be checked in order to test their pH values and be sure they are the precise and correct pH needed for the experiment. If desired, the pH values can be measured using pH strips. Add around 2cm3 of amylase solution into a 10cm3 measuring cylinder. After precisely reaching 2cm3 of amylase, the solution is to be poured into test tubes 1-5 of group 1. 2cm3 of starch solution should be poured in test tubes 1-5 of group 2.
Test tubes 1 from both groups are to be put into beaker 1 and test tubes labelled 2 should be put into beaker to. Place test tubes 3 in the test tube rack and within a 40°C water bath. Place test tubes 4 and 5 in test tube racks in a 60°C and 80°C water

    For unit 7.3 the experiment needed 2 microfuge tubes one labeled "L" for lactose and the other labeled "M" for maltose. The experiment also called for a total of 3 clean plastic pipettes. With one pipette add milk up to the 0.5 line of the lactose tube. With the second clean pipette add maltose solution up to the 0.5 line of the maltose tube. With the third clean pipette, add lactase solution to each tube, until the level of mixture in each tube comes up to the 1.0 line of the tube. Place both tubes in the 40 degrees celsius water bath and incubate them for 10 minutes. The other thing needed is glucose strips. After the tubes have been incubated for 10 minutes, place a glucose strip in each tube for one second. Let it sit for thirty seconds, then compare to the chart provided. For unit 7.4 the experiment called for two microfuge tubes. One labeled "control" and label another one "EDTA". Add 1.25 mL of EDTA to the EDTA tube, add 1.25mL of distilled water to the control tube. Add 3 drops of milk to each tube, invert the tube and let sit for 1 minute. Then add 3 drops of lactase solution to each tube. Then place both tubes in the 40 degrees celsius water bath and leave them for 10 minutes. After the 10 minutes are up, place the glucose strip in each tube and let the strips sit for 30 seconds. Then compare to the charts provided.…

    We dispensed each fluid into the small test tubes by using the correct amounts on the given chart. The test tubes were tested for temperature by placing it in hot water baths at various temperatures. Test tubes 2 & 3 were placed in a beaker at room temperature, 22°C. The rest of the test tubes were placed in hot bathes with a waiting period of ten minute interval. We placed test tubes 4 & 5 in 50°C, 6 & 7 at 40°C, 10 & 11 in 60°C, 12 & 13 in 70°C, and 14 & 15 in 80°C. We placed a thermometer on the test tubes…

    Be sure that the water does not boil too strongly and if it does occur reduce the heat. Put 12 test tubes on the test tube rack and label them 1 through 12 on the top of the tube using wax pencils. Use the ruler to draw a line at 3 cm and 6 cm on the test tubes using the wax pencil. Fill the test tube up to the 3 cm line with the solution to be tested and fill up to the 6 cm line with Benedict’s reagent. Invert test tubes to mix the liquid. Place the test tube in the hot water bath for 3 minutes and remove with test tube holder. Observe the results and record the data in table 4 then repeat all steps with the remaining 11 test tubes and substances. Once finished dispose of all solutions in hazard container and clean the test tubes with soap and water.…

    62 Iodine test for starch Amount of starch remaining Enzyme activity level Dark blue-black All None (0) Blue Most Low (1) Light brown Some Moderate (2) Gold None High (3) Part 1: Effect of Enzyme Concentration 1. Label five test tubes 1-5. Place 4 mL of 1 % starch in each of the first four test tubes. Place 4 mL of amylase solution in the fifth tube. Place all of the tubes in the 37°C water bath for 5 minutes. Obtain 5 clean droppers and label them 1-5. (To avoid contamination of these solutions, you will use a separate dropper for each mixture.) 2. Tube 1 will be your control and it will not contain any enzyme. Remove the tubes from the water bath momentarily, and quickly add 3 drops of the warmed amylase solution to tube 2, add 6 drops amylase to tube 3, and add 10 drops amylase to tube 4. Mix the tubes quickly by shaking them gently, and immediately put them back in the 37°C water bath. Record the time at which you added enzyme. Go on immediately to the next step. 3. Transfer four drops of each reaction mixture (tubes 1-4) using a separate clean dropper for each to separate wells on a spot plate. (Keep the test tubes in the water bath.) Add one drop of the iodine reagent to each. Record your observations. Use the visual color reference table to assess the enzyme activity. After you have recorded your observations, rinse off the spot plate. 4. Repeat step 3 after the mixtures have had five minutes of reaction time. 5. Repeat step 3 after the mixtures have had ten minutes of reaction time. 6. In the test tubes where hydrolysis occurred, the presence of glucose can be confirmed with Benedict’s reagent. Add 3 mL of Benedict’s reagent to each test tube and put them in the boiling water bath for 3-4 minutes. The appearance of a green to orange or red precipitate indicates the presence of glucose. If the solution remains blue with no solid, then no glucose is present and no hydrolysis of the starch has taken place. 7. Make a graph of the enzyme activity vs. the amount…
