INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is very important in our daily life from measurements of blood-flow rates in human artery to the measurement of liquid oxygen in a rocket. In this experiment‚ students are to adapt to various ways to measure the flow of essentially incompressible fluids by using the flow measuring apparatus. Students will also be able to understand the application of Bernoulli’s equation in this experiment. The flow is measured by using a venture meter‚ an orifice meter

The Effects of Temperature on the Action of Diastase on a Starch Suspension Hypothesis: The practical being carried out is to observe the effects of temperature on starch break down using a synthesized version of salivary amylase‚ this being Diastase. The starch will be placed into the Diastase and water and then placed in baths of water of different l. temperatures. The test tube containing water will have little or no reaction at all. However‚ the test tube containing the Diastase

Roy Levin Bio 11 Lab Dr.Izquierdo Analysis of Macromolecules in Tissue Homogenates of Bos taurusMaterials and Methods The homogenates provided were made by homogenizing tissues in a sucrose phosphate buffer in a 1:20 ratio. The protein concentration in bovine cells was measured by diluting the homogenate with a 1:5 ratio; 50 microliters of homogenate and 200 microliters of water. Then 5 known protein concentration samples which were 0.4‚ 0.8‚ 1.2‚ 1.6‚ 2.0 mg/ml of bovine serum were used to

Experiment 2: Starch Hydrolysis by Amylase Theoretical Background Polymers of carbohydrates are called polysaccharides‚ and make up some of the most important naturally occurring compounds [1]. They have thousands of monosaccharide units linked to each other by oxygen bridges. They include starch‚ glycogen‚ and cellulose‚ all three of which yield only glucose when completely hydrolyzed [2].

Abstract In food industry such as the production of cheese‚ bacteria takes a significant role on the wide variety of cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After

ABSTRACT. In this experiment‚ we test factors which affect friction. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whetherthe surface area ofthe block orthe type ofsurface affectsfriction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change the coefficient of kinetic friction‚ while the types of materialsin contact were directly related to the coefficient of kinetic friction. INTRODUCTION Friction is a part of our everyday life. Nearly every movement we make involves friction

Biology Lab report Proteins are very important throughout the body. They have a lot of functions in cells. Antibodies are proteins that help cells rebuild the cells when they are destroyed. Transport proteins move substances from one place to another. Regulatory proteins control cellular metabolism in a way that cells throughout the body can have the right amount of glucose in the blood. A common protein is an enzyme; in cells they speed up chemical reactions. For an example‚ “amylase is an enzyme
