Garlic and Bacteria Inhibition Does garlic keep vampires away? You can’t prove it scientifically‚ but many people do believe that garlic is good for what ails you — among other things it helps to ward off infection. Emily Koch noticed that her mom‚ who eats garlic‚ has fewer colds than other family members‚ so she decided to see if the stories about garlic are true. You can get a look at her project display in the figure. Figure: Project display for “Garlic and bacteria inhibition.” Hypothesis

The role of salivary amylase in the digestion of starches remains controversial. In the absence of pancreatic amylase‚ the key enzyme for starch digestion‚ salivary amylase may well represent a potential compensatory alternate pathway for the digestion of amylose‚ amylopectin‚ and glycogen. Clinically significant depression of pancreatic amylase occurs in chronic pancreatitis‚ pancreatic resection‚ pancreatic neoplasm‚ cystic fibrosis‚ and other causes of pancreatic insufficiency.

Abstract This experiment analyzes the effects of how temperature affects bacterial and fungus amylase and also discovers the optimum temperature for these enzymes. The amylase was mixed with starch at temperatures of 0℃‚ 37℃‚ 57℃‚ and 90℃. Iodine was added to each mixture and colour changes in each case. Bacteria amylase was found to be effective at 55 0C as the temperature dropped drastically from 4.58℃ to 2.33℃. This shows that the amylase catabolized a lot of starch hence little is left which

Enzymatic Activity of Salivary Amylase Abstract: Salivary amylase is an enzyme that can digest starch molecules and break them down to sugar molecules. In this experiment‚ the enzymatic activity and specificity of salivary amylase was examined depending on the changes in pH and temperature. In the first part of the experiment‚ the effect of temperature was determined‚ using constant temperature bath (4‚ room temp‚ 37‚ 50‚ 60‚ and 70°C). Having the room temp and 50°C as the highest and 37°C as infinite

Aside from the primary component of bromelain which is the sulfhydryl proteolytic enzyme‚ it also contains of different elements that makes it of more beneficial. One of the components includes escharase which is a non-proteolytic substance in bromelain that is essential in the action of topical bromelain. Other components of bromelain are peroxidase‚ acid phosphatase‚ several protease inhibitor and organically-bound

Available online 8 December 2004 Abstract The encapsulation of enzymes in microenvironments and especially in liposomes‚ has proven to greatly improve enzyme stabilization against unfolding‚ denaturation and dilution effects. Combining this stabilization effect‚ with the fact that liposomes are optically translucent‚ we have designed nano-sized spherical biosensors. In this work liposome-based biosensors are prepared by encapsulating the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in L-a phosphatidylcholine liposomes
