strove to determine how effective different sugars were in fermentation by measuring their CO2 emissions. An increased CO2 production implies the substrate is undergoing glycolysis more often‚ resulting in increased ATP synthesis. For a more accurate interpretation of the results‚ glucose acted as a positive control‚ displaying the most efficiency in fermentation as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2‚ while ethanol‚ which is a byproduct of fermentation‚ acted as a negative control‚ producing no CO2. These

The Fermentation and Distillation of Alcohol By Bhanupriya Chettiar 301 Group Members: Bhanupriya Chettiar‚ Rachel Min‚ Zoe Chandler‚ Bianca Main Aim The aim of the practical is to prepare ethanol by fermentation and to isolate it by fractional distillation. Introduction This practical’s aim is to prepare ethanol using two steps; fermentation and then fractional distillation. Many alcoholic drinks for example‚ brandy and whisky‚ are prepared using this method but to a larger scale. The first

Carbohydrate Fermentation Testing Questions A. What is fermentation? It is a metabolic process that allows the production of ATP without need for oxygen B. Why is it important not to incubate the fermentation tubes beyond 24 hours? You may not get accurate results. Although sugar is the primary nutrient used‚ when a microbe runs out of it‚ protein or other nutrients will be attacked This causes changes in the color of the medium because of the pH indicator added to detect acid production. When proteins

of reactions that converts glucose to pyruvate with the concomitant formation of ATP. Three fates of this pyruvate produced exist. In this practical the production of pyruvate and acetaldehyde by fermentation of glucose is established. A series of test tubes was set up each containing glucose and yeast suspension in buffers at different pH values. These test tubes were incubated for an hour at 37℃. Trichloro-acetic acid solution was then added to the first 2 of the 4 test tubes prior to centrifugation

concentration of 1-kestose isomer increased steadily with time from 0 - 80 min. During this time‚ sucrose was significantly influencing the rate of 1-kestose formation and hence the optimum concentration of the 1-kestose isomer was observed at 80 min. After 80 min‚ the 1-kestose concentration gradually decreased. This was because the invertase active sites had become saturated with sucrose (substrate) or sucrose had been used up in the reaction. Therefore‚ there was a gradual decrease observed in the

The methylene blue staining procedure is used to measure yeast viability based on the assumption that the methylene blue will enter the cells and be broken down by living yeast cells that produce the enzymes which breaks down methylene blue‚ leaving the cells colourless. The non- viable cells do not produce this enzyme (or enzymes) and as such the methylene blue that enters the cells are undegraded causing the cells to remain coloured (the oxidized form concentrates intracellularly). The coloured

Aerobic VS Anaerobic Exercise Jane Doe Grantham University ABSTRACT Being in the military has caused me to become a better athlete than I have been before. Running is one of our main focuses and in my personal life I have strived to become better at it since I know that I despise running but need to improve on it. One of the things that I have learned is that in order for a high performance runner to reach a level that is desired to help max out their run time for military standards‚ the individual

It respires both anaerobically and aerobically to produce CO2 and alcohol in a process known as fermentation (Barrio‚ 2009). It does this by breaking down the sugars (in the process outlined in figure 1) in the mitochondria (see figure 2). There are various factors
