    Effect of Temperature ( C ͦ) on Enzyme Catalase Activity in potato Aim: To investigate the Effect of temperature (10‚ 37‚ 60) Celsius (C ͦ) on enzyme catalase activity in potato using 2% of hydrogen peroxide (H202) as the substrate measuring the height (cm) of oxygen gas (bubbles) and calculating the volume of oxygen bubbles produced (cm3) Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up metabolic reactions without being affected. They lower the activation energy needed to start

    inside of the amylose coil.The amount of blue complex that starch gives with iodine can be measured by using a spectrophotometer. α-amylases are found in saliva‚ pancreatic juice‚ human breast milk‚ serum and certain tissues such as the liver. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of α (1-4) linkages in starch by breaking it down to maltose and some glucose. As the starch is broken down‚ the coiled structure of α-amylase is unfolded. Therefore‚ iodine will no longer be able to form the blue complex

    different from the hypothesis because while the enzyme appeared to not work as well‚ I expected a more significant change. Most of the time‚ there was only a millimeter of difference of the foam between the two samples while I expected a greater difference such as 10 millimeters. Enzymes speed up chemical reactions and at the active site‚ a substrate can be broken down or two substrates can form a larger molecule. Hydrogen peroxide is broken down by peroxidase into water and oxygen which is released in

    Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effects of changes in temperatures and pH on enzyme activity in skeletal muscle‚ particularly the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚

    Title: “The Effect of Substrate Concentration‚ Enzyme Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity” Abstract: In the following experiments we will measure precise amounts of potato extract as well as Phenylthiourea‚ combined with or without deionized water and in some instances change the temperature and observe and record the reaction. We will also investigate the different levels of prepared pH on varying samples of the potato extract and the Phenylthiourea and record the results.

    The Effect of Temperature on the Enzyme Catalase Stephen Francis Biology 183 Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the resultant effect of temperature change on the reaction between the enzyme catalase and hydrogen peroxide. This experiment was performed by measuring and comparing the amount of oxygen bubbles produced and the absorbance of the catalase and hydrogen peroxide solution over time at room temperature‚ 2°C‚ 50°C‚ and 60°C. The overall result of this experiment proved
