There are causes and risk factors that come into play. When you eat‚ food passes from your mouth down a tube called the esophagus. To enter the stomach‚ food has to pass

Lactose Intolerance is an intestinal condition caused by insufficient synthesis of the intestinal enzyme lactase needed to break down lactose (Keith‚ Nichols‚ Reed‚ Kafer‚ Miller 2011). So what does this exactly mean? People with lactose intolerance have trouble digesting lactose‚ the natural sugar found in milk and milk products. Undigested lactose can upset the stomach and cause diarrhea. Most people who are lactose intolerant are able to consume some lactose without symptoms. However‚ many people

What is lactase deficiency? -Lactase deficiency is a deficiency in the enzyme that breaks down lactose. The causes of lactase deficiency include congenital defects‚ secondary lactase deficiency‚ and primary (acquired). 3. Define lactose maldigestion‚ identify the potential etiologies of lactose maldigestion‚ and describe

Madam Chan is a 72 years old lady who suffered from some physical condition recently. She usually be alone in her home and cannot buy food from markets and cook them as usual due to not being able to go up and down stair which is the only method for her to go out and back home.

milk is driven by its increasing popularity among consumers. These beverages are a part of the traditional diet in the Asia-Pacific region. The main driver of the market is the health benefit of dairy alternatives for consumers who suffer from lactose intolerance‚ milk allergy‚ etc. Accurate marketing practices and the apt knowledge dissemination programs to educate consumers are foreseen as the biggest opportunities in the market. The dairy alternative beverage market is projected to reach a value

The lactose is milk sugar‚ a disaccharide consisting of one glucose and one galactose. When lactose reaches the small intestine‚ the lactase enzyme acts on the lactose found in ingested food‚ dividing it into the two molecules that compose it‚ so they can be absorbed‚ digested and transported through the bloodstream. When the person has a lactase deficiency (lactase enzyme has a low concentration or does not occur)‚ the dietary lactose cannot be digested in the small intestine directly passing into

The filtrate from III.A was used for the other tests. a.> Test for lactose. 5 drops of the filtrate was added with 3 ml Benedicts’ reagent. It was heated in a water bath. The results were noted. b.> Test for calcium ions. 1ml of the filtrate was added with 1 ml of (NH4)2C2O4 solution. c.> Test for phosphate

Introduction In this task I will investigate how the enzyme lactase breaks down the disaccharide lactose into monosaccharides‚ which are glucose and galactose. The main aim will be to get lactose – free milk as milk contains lactose. When we drink milk we need lactase (enzyme) to break down the lactose‚ which is contained by the milk. Once I have created my own method of enzyme immobilisation of lactose using lactase I will then construct a bioreactor. I have looked at and researched on the Internet
