    Jennifer Anatomy and Physiology Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The chemical reaction that is being studied is the hydrolysis of starch. The enzyme that is being studied is amylase. This experiment is looking at the effect of temperature on the rate of the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. My hypothesis is that the higher the temperature the faster the hydrolysis of the starch would occur. The rationale behind this is that heat

    Enzymes are organic catalysts; where a substance speeds up the rate of chemical reactions without changing being changed by the reactions. In lab they tested this by seeing how H2O2 and the catalysts from the banana and liver react to make H2O+O2. Depending on different conditions; like decomposition of H2O2 (surface area)‚ temperature on function‚ reusing the catalase‚ reaction rate of iced liver returned to room temperature‚ and effects of pH on enzyme activity‚ to see how much O2 was released

    Introduction Enzymes are key players in metabolism. A metabolism is the organic processes in a cell or an organism that are necessary for life. An enzyme affects the rate at which a reaction occurs when the activation energy is lowered. In this reaction the reactant is called the substrate which is that combine with enzymes molecules to form a temporary enzyme substrate complex. During this products are formed and the enzyme molecules released is unchanged. For the substrate complex to form the

    Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to measure the extent of enzyme reaction on given substrates by means of color change. The reaction followed is given below: Tyrosinase„³ Enzyme Pyrocatechol Hydroxyquinone Oxidation/Reduction Pink „³ Brown E+S + [ES] = E+P Enzyme Reaction Hypothesis: If there is an increase in enzyme concentration‚ an increase in reaction temperature‚ or an increase in buffer pH‚ then greater

    Hypothesis: If pH is increased or decreased past the enzyme’s optimum pH‚ the number of products produced by the enzyme will decrease because the enzyme will become denatured. Variables: The Independent variable is the pH of the environment. The uncertainty of pH is ± 1. pH is a unitless value. The Dependent variable is the number of products produced. The uncertainty of this this measurement is ± 1 product. In order for this experiment to be controlled‚ many variable were identified and held constant

    Exploring Enzymes - Ground-Up Tissue Activity Abstract Our experiment looked at how increasing the surface area of a substance affects the amount of bubbles created due to the presence of the enzyme catalase. The experiment used two pieces of fish‚ one whole and one ground up‚ which were then covered in hydrogen peroxide. This method allowed us to observe the catalase in ground up fish break down the hydrogen peroxide at a quicker rate than in the piece of fish left intact. This was determined

    Lab report nº4 The aim of this experiment was to observe the change of enzyme reaction with different concentration of solution. For this experiment we used potato enzymes (catalase) and hydrogen peroxide in concentrations of 100%‚ 80%‚ 60%‚ 40%‚ and 20% According to P.George: “When catalase is added to hydrogen peroxide‚ there is an initial rapid evolution of oxygen which lasts for about two minutes‚ depending on the peroxide concentration. After this‚ oxygen is given off at a steady rate which

    MISEP Chemistry 512 – Jacobs Enzyme Catalyst Lab - Formal Report – August 8‚ 2007 ABSTRACT This investigation examined what would happen to the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction if the concentration of substrate changed. We hypothesized that if the concentration increased‚ then the reaction rate would also increase. To test our question‚ we varied a combination of substrate and buffer‚ totaling 6mL‚ with a constant amount of 2 drops of catalyst. The enzyme catalyst‚ peroxidase‚ increased

    Discussion The primary purpose of this experiment was to determine the optimum temperature range for the activity of the enzyme lactase. Extreme temperatures can have a detrimental effect on enzymes; very hot temperatures can cause the denaturation in the enzyme‚ which is the loss of protein structure. This causes a change in the shape of the enzyme leading to its inability to perform its function. As previously stated‚ the alternate hypothesis read: the optimal temperature range for lactase activity

    Affect of enzyme concentration to the rate of reaction Aim: With the experiment of protein solution‚ in this case egg white added to different pepsin concentrations (0%‚ 0.2%‚ 0.4%‚ 0.6%‚ 0.8%‚ 1.0%) shows‚ as the egg white is a protein and the pepsin works as an enzyme‚ how a higher pepsin concentration and therefore a larger amount of enzymes effect the rate of reaction. Hypothesis: An increased concentration of pepsin speeds up the time the mixture needs to come clear. Introduction:
