Labset Three Worksheet 1. What is a carbohydrate profile? Why are they used as a diagnostic or identifying tool? (2) Carbohydrate profiles are specific information on the type and amount of carbohydrate that a product contains. It is used to identify and differentiate two closely related species. 2. What are the carbohydrate profiles of the organisms you tested? (2) The yeast carbohydrate profile came out with glucose and fructose positive and Mannitol negative. The staph epidermidis

Beetroot Cells with High temperatures and low pH solutions Friday 15th March 2013 Abstract (50) The aim of this investigation was to study the effects of temperature and a low pH solution on beetroot cells. Introduction (200) The general belief amongst our group members was: an increase in temperature will damage the permeability of the plasma membrane. Also‚ the heat will break away the permeability. If the pH solution is 7 or greater there will be no change but the lower the pH the more proteins

Abstract The following experiment details the effect of different concentrations of catalase on the production of oxygen and water through the breakdown of Hydrogen Peroxide. In this experiment paper disc where coated in varying concentrations of catalase‚ 0‚ 25‚ 50 75 and 100%. The time taken for the disc to float between two markers on the side of a glass was then recorded. This experiment demonstrates that the higher the concentration of enzyme used the greater the production of oxygen on the

Effect of enzyme concentration on rate of reaction Research question: is there a relationship between catalase concentration and the rate of reaction? Hypotheses: if the enzyme concentration is increased then the rate of reaction will increase. If the enzyme concentration is decreased then the rate of reaction will decrease. Controlled: temperature Independent: % catalyze concentration ( Dependent: rate of reaction (mm/s) Materials: Mortar and pestle Graduated cylinder Distilled

How Enzyme Concentration can Affect Rate of Reaction The purpose of this investigation was to see how the concentration of an enzyme affected the rate at which a substance was broken down. We did this by using a white protein called casein. Casein is found in milk powder‚ it is a protein and used mainly as a binding agent in foods‚ because it is mad to proteins and joins to a phosphoric acid it belong to a group called the phophoproteins. In terms of in milk it is said to be healthier if it is

Title : THE EFFECT OF PH ON THE ACTIVITY OF CATALASE Aim : To study the effect of pH on the activity of catalase. Introduction : Catalase‚ an enzyme found in many different tissues‚ catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. 2 H202 → 2H20 + O2 Hydrogen peroxide is a toxic substance that can be formed during aerobic respiration and catalase removes this product. The activity of catalase can be measured by finding the rate of oxygen release from hydrogen peroxide

Biology 102 Lab Report: Ventilation and Oxygen Consumption in Fish Methods: The lab consists of two experiments repeated over a period one hour with fifteen minutes interval‚ in order to determine the effect of weight and temperature on ventilation and oxygen consumption of Carassius auratus‚ commonly known as goldfish. Each experiment was carried out by five groups. Measurement of ventilation was determined by recording operculum movement of the fish. Oxygen consumption was measured using oxygen

An enzyme is a tertiary globular protein. The function of an enzyme is to lower the activation energy of either the creation or breaking apart of a chemical bond. By lowering the activation energy of this process‚ the reaction of bonding‚ or in this case breaking apart‚ is sped up. An enzyme breaks apart the substrate in the active site of the enzyme; this is where the magic happens. Substrate is what is being broken apart by the enzyme. In this case‚ the enzyme is catalase and the substrate is hydrogen

The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the angle of impact affects the diameter and depth of a crater. The hypothesis was correct‚ stating that if the angle of impact changes than the depth and diameter will change due to the amount of speed and force is being put in the marble (meteor)‚ and the most effective angle for the diameter is at a 20 degree angle‚ and for depth is at a 90 degree angle. The hypothesis turned out to be true because it all depends to the angle the meteor or in this
