Aim: To investigate the effect of hydrogen peroxide concentration on enzyme catalase Indroduction: Enzymes are proteins. They function as biological catalysts. They lower the energy barrier of a reaction so that the reaction can take place at body temperature. Also‚ they can speed up Metabolic reactions without being changed or used up. During a reaction‚ an enzyme molecule combines temporarily with the substrate. When the reaction is complete‚ the enzyme molecules returns to its original dorm

Matthew Saldanha Bio DCP lab-Catalase experiment Aim: To investigate enzyme kinetics‚ using different concentration of the enzyme. Hypothesis: The assay system used in the lab consists of a filter paper disc coated with the enzyme and the dropped into a papercup of substrate (Hydrogen Peroxide). As the hydrogen breaks down the hydrogen peroxide into hydrogen and oxygen gas‚ the bubbles of oxygen gas collect underneath the filter and make it

effects of catalase under varying controlled conditions. The scope of this experiment includes Metabolic processes‚ such as cellular respiration‚ and it poisonous byproduct hydrogen peroxide. The methodology includes procedures; multiple variables were tested in specific concentrations; that test the reaction rates of the enzyme catalase over a fixed period of time. The major conclusion was that catalase reacts faster in warm temperatures that are neither freezing nor boiling‚ catalase performs well

Rate of Catalase in Various Concentrations of Hydrogen Peroxide QUESTION: How long does the catalase take to float to the top of a cup filled with different amounts of hydrogen peroxide concentration? PREDICTION: A prediction that can be made for this experiment is that the higher the concentration‚ the faster time it takes the catalase to react with the solution. As the concentration increases from 1% to 100%‚ the average reaction rate of the catalase will decrease‚ as the catalase will speed

The Effect of pH on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysis of Catalase Objectives: The objective of this lab was to develop a protocol to investigate the effect of an environmental variable on the catalytic function of an enzyme. More specifically‚ the objective was to perform an experiment in order to test the effect of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts for reactions. This simply means that enzymes lower the activation energy required

increase in enzyme concentration will increase the reaction rate when all the active sites are full‚ and an increase in substrate concentration will increase the rate when the active sites are not completely full. The enzyme used in this lab is catalase‚ a common catalyst found in nearly all

Enzyme Activity Lab Objective: To determine the effect of temperature‚ PH and enzyme concentration on catalase activity. Introduction: What is an enzyme and how the enzyme works. Any of a group of complex proteins or conjugated proteins thatare produced by living cells and act as catalysts in specific biochemical reactions. The system in which enzymes work is often referred to as the ’lock and key’ system it’s where the enzyme and the substrate lock together. The substrate then unlocks into

dairy industry‚ the enzyme Protease is used widely. While making cheese‚ protease helps coagulate milk in cheese production. This helps in turning the milk from a soluble product to an insoluble product. Besides‚ the enzyme catalase is used in the medical industry. Catalase helps break down hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. This enzyme is used for dressing up wounds. After its catabolism‚ oxygen will heal up wounds faster. In short‚ enzymes help us humans not only inside our bodies‚ but
