Title: Catalase enzyme detection Objective: To understand the function of catalase in cells that produce the enzyme‚ interpret the results of a catalase test and know their value in differentiating bacteria. Materials: 1 clean microscopic slide‚ 3% H2O2 solution‚ swabs. Micrococcus luteus‚ Enterococcus faecalis‚ patient G Procedure: 1) Scrape some cells off from each bateria to the slant and place them on glass slide. 2) Place one or two drops of H2O2. Watch for bubbling as an indication of

A potato battery is a type of electrochemical cell. An electrochemical cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy. In the potato battery‚ there is a transfer of electrons between the zinc coating the galvanized nail that will be inserted into the potato and the copper wire that will be inserted another part of the potato. The potato conducts electricity‚ yet keeps the zinc ions and copper ions separate‚ so that the electrons in the copper wire are forced to move (generate current). It’s

obtained where the trend of each factor affecting on the enzyme activity is shown and described clearly. II. Hypothesis Experiment 1 (Effect of Temperature): As the temperature increases‚ the height of the bubble will increase too‚ indicating a faster rate of reaction. Experiment 2 (Effect of pH): Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. Extremely high or low pH values generally result in complete loss of activity for most enzymes. Experiment 3 (Effect of Substrate Concentration):

ON THE ACTIVITY OF CATALASE Aim : To study the effect of pH on the activity of catalase. Introduction : Catalase‚ an enzyme found in many different tissues‚ catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. 2 H202 → 2H20 + O2 Hydrogen peroxide is a toxic substance that can be formed during aerobic respiration and catalase removes this product. The activity of catalase can be measured by finding the rate of oxygen release from hydrogen peroxide. Potato provides a suitable

Potato Catalysis Lab Pre-Lab Assignment Background Information: An enzyme is catalytic protein. It is the most important type of molecule found in living cells. Cells would not be able to function without enzymes. Enzymes speed up or slow down chemical reactions of the cells. It is usually easy to identify the names of enzymes because they end in -ase. The enzyme that acts upon the substrate hydrogen peroxide is usually called catalase. This enzyme is found in both plants and animals

hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen gas. An enzyme known as catalase facilitates this decomposition reaction. The catalase enzyme acts as catalysis‚ helping lower the energy needed to activate the reaction while the enzyme itself is not affected. Catalase is a digestive enzyme used to break down hydrogen peroxide‚ which is a normal byproduct of cellular respiration. The reaction could take place without the help of catalase‚ but it would happen a lot more slowly because more energy is needed

[Name] [Teacher] [Course] [Date] Catalase Lab Report An enzyme is something that helps to speed up a chemical reaction. The enzyme changes from reaction to reaction‚ but it always has the same impact. However‚ certain variables may cause the enzyme to have a more or less significant impact on the speed of each reaction. One of these variables that changes the effectiveness of an enzyme is temperature. There is an optimal functioning temperature for each enzyme in each reaction‚ depending on

came up with the study entitled “Potato Battery”. Two new sources are fruits and vegetables. These are organic and can easily be bought at farms and markets. One of these is the use of potato but not all fruits and vegetables are usable. Potato had been considered due to it’s high content of phosphoric acid. B. Statement of the problem This study basically aims to find out whether a potato could be able to produce enough power to light up a bulb. And if it does‚ how many potatoes would be needed
