    Tomas‚ Manila Philippines Abstract Salivary amylase‚ found in humans‚ is enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into simpler compounds. Its enzymatic activity is affected by several factors‚ such as temperature and pH. The rates of enzymatic activity of salivary amylase in different temperatures and pH were measured and resulted to be very near 50 C and 7 respectively. However‚ due to some errors that were committed‚ the expected optimum temperature was not achieved. Introduction Of all

    Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to check the time needed for salivary amylase and phosphorylase to produce a negative result and how different concentrations affected those times. Enzymes are biological catalysts that can cause a specific chemical change in any part of the body (Walsh‚ 2002). Many of the reactions that take place within a cell would normally take place at temperatures substantially higher than those present inside a cell (Alberts et al.‚ 2010). Because of this‚ these chemical

    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

    specific chemical reaction by converting a specific reactants into a specific product. The enzyme activity will also be affected by temperature and pH value. In this experiment‚ enzyme was placed in carbohydrate solution at different temperature to identify unknown carbohydrate solution. The enzyme that involved in the reaction is salivary amylase. The action of amylase on starch is with the mixture of IKI (iodine and potassium iodide test).Starch solution will have a blue-black colour in the mixture

    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. Quantitation
