    Title: Confirming the Presence of Fermentation in the Conversion of Milk to Kefir Authors: Michael Ahrens‚ Nicholas Fiore‚ Garrett Hages‚ Melissa Cullom University of Kansas‚ Biol 402‚ Fall 2014‚ 3:00pm room 6040 Abstract: In this experiment milk was fermented into Kefir‚ then a series of tests were used to confirm that fermentation actually occurred. The tests used to confirm the fermentation were a gas production test‚ pH test‚ Gram stain‚ and turbidity test. The results showed during the conversion

    of this experiment was to investigate the effect that a glucose concentration has on the rate of fermentation. This was done by adding a variety of different glucose concentration into a test tube‚ siting in a water bath. The carbon dioxide would be collected in the test tube and therefore would measure the rate of fermentation. The results parsley supported the hypothesis that‚ “If the glucose concentration increases‚ the rate of fermentation increases‚ therefore the more carbon dioxide released”

    Laboratory Manual‚ alcohol fermentation in yeast breaks down sugars into carbon dioxide and ethanol which is very important in many fields such as biofuel‚ industrial‚pharmaceutical and others. Amylase is an enzyme that break down starch/amylose in plants. Corn kernel contains starch‚ sugars and cellulose. This experiment focused on the effect of amylase on corn extract in respect to the rate of fermentation. Since amylase breaks down starch‚ the part of corn that contains the most starch should have the fastest

    Yeast Fermentation Lab Report SBI4U Chaweewan. Sirakawin Present to Ms.Allinotte November 21. 2014 Introduction: Fermentation is a metabolic pathway that produce ATP molecules under anaerobic conditions (only undergoes glycolysis)‚ NAD+ is used directly in glycolysis to form ATP molecules‚ which is not as efficient as cellular respiration because only 2ATP molecules are formed during the glycolysis. One type of fermentation is alcohol fermentation‚ it produces

    Fermentation Lab Report Introduction: Fermentation‚ a type of anaerobic respiration that breaks down glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide without the use of oxygen‚ is extremely vital in food processing. Especially useful in the making of bread and wine is yeast‚ a single-celled fungus. The rate of fermentation of these products can be done by measuring the amount of carbon dioxide produced by the work of the yeast. The specific variable we tested was the volume of fructose in each vial solution

    The rate of fermentation is faster when there is more sucrose concentration because it means there is more glucose‚ which in return means more carbon dioxide production. The sucrose concentrations were 0%‚ 1%‚ 5%‚ and 10%. The 0% sucrose concentration is just normal‚ plain water. Yeast‚ a single celled eukaryotic fungi‚ was put into the solutions. It uses fermentation to make more carbon dioxide and alcohol. In the 0% solution‚ no carbon dioxide had been produced. At the start‚ the depth of the
