effects of pH‚ enzyme concentration‚ and temperature on the catalytic rate on enzyme ALP. The initial experiment was done to approximate the optimum pH for the activity of the enzyme. The hypothesis was that alkaline phosphatase activity will be critically affected by pH effects. The hypothesis was valid because the data shows that the pH values for the acidic‚ basic‚ and neutral tubes increased over time‚ absorbing at similar rates. The basic tube had the highest rate of absorbance while the acid tube

A. Goal and Purpose: Session 1: In this lab‚ we will achieve a simple Friedel-Crafts alkylation of anthracene. The choice of anthracene as an aromatic substrate stems from two considerations. First‚ there is a question of regioselectivity. Second‚ anthracene and its derivatives are highly visible under UV light. Session 2: In this lab‚ we will complete a partial conversion of 9-acetylanthracene using m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA). We will also determine by NMR‚ the regiochemistry of the

The Effect of Metal Ions on Lichens Casey Stinnett ESC 1510 October 30‚ 2014 Introduction Lichens are a sybiotic association of fungus (mycobiont) and algae (Pediastrum boryanum . The fungus engulfs the algae‚ then supplies carbs‚ nitrogen‚ and vitamins while the algae photosynthesizes. This unusual relationship enables the lichen to grow in environments where neither fungus nor algae would normally be able to solely survive. They are found on every continent‚ ranging all the way from

This lab activity will go over environmental factors that affect the folded structure of proteins. We used a raw egg and noted the changes that happen when there were changes in temperature‚ pH levels‚ and salinity. Five eggs were cracked open and placed into different bowls with different solutions placed into each bowl. What we looked at was the process of denaturing of proteins seeing how it affected the composition of the raw egg between the yoke and white portion. My hypothesis for this experiment

Unknown Lab Report April 25th‚ 2006 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways‚ each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures

Reabsorption occurs in the proximal tubules of the nephron. Water‚ glucose‚ amino acids‚ sodium and other nutrients are reabsorbed into the bloodstream in the capillaries surrounding the tubules. Water moves via the process of osmosis: movement of water from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. Tubular secretion

A pH meter is an electronic instrument used to measure the pH (acidity or alkalinity) of a liquid (though special probes are sometimes used to measure the pH of semi-solid substances). A typical pH meter consists of a special measuring probe (a glass electrode) connected to an electronic meter that measures and displays the pH reading. The probe The pH probe measures pH as the activity of hydrogen ions surrounding a thin-walled glass bulb at its tip. The probe produces a small voltage (about 0

Wave Nature of Light Objective: The purpose of this lab is to investigate interference‚ otherwise known as the diffraction of light. A beam of light acts a wave‚ and we are able to use equations so calculate the wavelength of the light used. The diffraction of a straight edge demonstrates that light waves bend around straight edges‚ allowing light to enter an area of shadow. When waves are superposed‚ they reinforce each other when crests are in phase and cancel out when they are not in phase

PEES 4200W- Physiology of Exercise Lab #2: Metabolism and Energy Expenditure 1. The Respiratory exchange ratio is the ratio of the volume of carbon dioxide produced and oxygen consumed. The ratio indicates the energy that the subject is expending for indirect calorimetry‚ how efficient the subject ’s body is at utilizing the oxygen inhaled‚ as well as the main substrate being used for energy during varying intensities of exercise. During rest the volume of carbon dioxide was 0.73L/min‚ the volume
