Abstract: After reviewing the basics of enzymes and catalysis‚ we take a dive into the wonderful world of catalase. Beginning with establishing a base line of just how much hydrogen peroxide there is in 5.0mL of the reacted solution; to figuring out exactly how much actually reacted after 300 seconds of catalyzed reaction. Follow the experiment from the beginning steps right to the end as you see where the students went wrong‚ interpretation of the results‚ and great answers to work sheet

Amie Gohn 11-30-11 Mr. Brown Introduction There are many different factors that can affect urine including volume‚ urine concentration‚ and pH levels. Factors that affect urine volume are fluid intake and reabsorption‚ which affects the amount of urine released. Urine concentration is measured by the concentration of dissolved solids present in a person’s urine‚ which is affected by water intake levels as well as diet (the amount of sodium in person’s diet). The pH

Principles of Biology Lab Exercise Enzymes: Catalysts of Life Instructor: Professor Alcendor By Shahid Rana Date: March 7th‚ 2013 Abstract: In this experiment we have demonstrated the function of enzymes. The whole experiment was devoted to understand how enzymes work as a catalysts and increase the chemical reaction without being used themselves. In general‚ enzymes are proteins that function as biological catalysts. These enzymes adhere to lower to amount of energy required for

Determining the percent Concentration of a given Solution using Titration Morphy Kuffour Mrs. Langlis‚ AP Chemistry C-D 9/24/2017 Purpose: Determining the precise concentration of vinegar through titration using a standard solution of Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) (aq) Background: Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (CH3COOH) in water. The concentration of acetic acid in Vinegar is written as a Molarity (mol/L). In this experiment‚ titration is used to determine the concentration of acetic acid in vinegar

Description: A peroxidase enzyme‚ which was extracted from a brassica compestris (turnip)‚ is tested under various conditions in temperature‚ pH level‚ and competitive inhibitor (hydroxylamine). ABSTRACT: In order to determine the properties of an enzyme‚ a peroxidase enzyme was extracted from a brassica compestris (turnip) and tested under various temperatures‚ pH levels‚ and by a competitive inhibitor (hydroxylamine). The enzyme activity was measured in various ways depending on the activity

ABSTRACT: Two separate variables were hypothesized and tested within the confines of the experiment on their effects on the productivity of lactase enzyme. The measurement of light absorbance levels of different solutions based on both the concentration of o-nitrophenol (ONP) as well as the pH of the solution tested. To begin with‚ differing concentrations of ONP were tested to find the absorbance levels of ONP. Three different pH values‚ 5‚ 6‚ and 7‚ in solution‚ were tested over a period of 8

that the enzyme concentration will affect the rate of reaction but only up until a certain point because there is a limited supply of substrate. Enzymes are protein molecule that acts as biological catalyst by increasing the rate of reactions without changing the overall process. They are long chain amino acids bound together by peptide bonds. Enzymes are seen in all living cells and controlling the metabolic processes in which they converted nutrients into energy and new cells. Enzymes also help

In this folio task‚ the impact of drug absorption and blood stream concentration‚ on the human body‚ will be observed. The rate of absorption and clearance of the drug‚ relies on many factors. The drugs blood stream concentration‚ time of administration‚ absorption rate‚ clearance rate and the effect of certain parameters‚ will be calculated. This can be completed through using a surge function‚ calculus (derivatives) and straight line graphs (). Graphing technology on the graphics calculator

Catalase Enzyme Lab Samiya Hussein March 9‚ 2012 Introduction In order to receive the necessary amounts of energy required for daily function‚ the digestive system must break down proteins‚ fats and carbohydrates. In doing so‚ the body produces poisonous chemicals; however‚ the cells aren’t harmed. This is because enzymes are used to break down these chemicals. The name of the enzyme that was the main focus of the lab is catalase. Catalase is responsible for catalyzing hydrogen peroxide

For this experiment‚ we started off by taking tubes numbered 1-4 and started adding one scoop of our enzyme catalyst‚ in this case‚ the yeast. We then proceeded to measure and add 1 mL of distilled water to test tubes A-D. To get a more accurate measure of 1 mL of distilled water‚ we used the dropper labeled “W” to drop distilled water into the 5 mL graduated cylinder until we saw that the bottom of the water line reached closely to 1 mL. Next‚ we took the four tubes with the scoop of yeast and
