The Effect Of Different Ph Levels On The Enzyme Activity Of Pepsin
The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect of different pH levels on the enzyme activity of pepsin while the protein egg white is being digested. The purpose is to investigate which is the optimum pH level for pepsin enzyme, or rather in which pH level the pepsin enzyme will work best.
The pH level found in the stomach is between 1 and 3. The hypothesis of this experiment is that pepsin enzyme works best in the conditions where the pH level is closer to the one found in the stomach, which means that the optimum pH level for the pepsin enzyme activity would be between 1 and 3. Anything out of that range will inhibits the enzyme activity, meaning that less acidic or more basic environments will not allow the reaction to occur.
