Organic Chemistry II Lab 9 Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose * Introduction Ethanol is one of the oldest alcohols and also the least toxic one. Industrially‚ ethanol is made most economically by hydration of ethylene. However‚ ethanol that is intended for human consumption must‚ by law‚ be prepared by fermentation. By either method‚ ethanol‚ of course‚ has the same formula‚ structure‚ and properties. The fermentation takes place with the assistance of enzymes from yeast in 2

Introduction Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts; thus allowing the many chemical reactions in life to occur. The purpose of an enzyme is to speed up the rate of a chemical reaction. Without enzymes‚ living organisms would be unable to function properly‚ since the releasing and storing of energy depend on the enzyme’s function (2). Through the process of catabolism‚ complex molecules within organic compounds are broken into simpler molecules. As a result of catabolic reactions‚ energy used

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 the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

2014 Biology 1 Cellular Processes Lab Section 903 Tianna Clarke Materials and Methods Part I – Restriction Enzyme Digestion To begin this experiment‚ the DNA molecules must be cut into smaller fragments with distinct enzymes called Restriction Enzymes through a process called Restriction Enzyme Digestion. Four microtest tubes were labeled 1 through 4 and added 10 µl of Enzyme Reaction Buffer to each of the four reaction tubes using a micropipette. DNA‚ and Enzyme 1 and 2‚ were then added to the

Lab Report 3 In this lab‚ we will take a trip to the planetarium lab and will learn about Right ascension and declination‚ and altitude and zenith. After looking at the different points shown‚ we will log the altitude and zenith in the chart in our lab manual. Now we will look at the same points and label the right ascension and declination. Then we will learn about the easiest way to locate the star Polaris. As we started the first program‚ we answered a few questions to make sure we knew

The Effect of pH on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysis of Catalase Objectives: The objective of this lab was to develop a protocol to investigate the effect of an environmental variable on the catalytic function of an enzyme. More specifically‚ the objective was to perform an experiment in order to test the effect of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts for reactions. This simply means that enzymes lower the activation energy required

This lab report will be detailing the steps taken and the results discovered when using spectrophotometry to determine the percentage of copper in a copper-clad penny and the thicknes of the copper layer on the copper-clad penny. After 1982‚ copper coating has been used in the creation of the penny because the cost of pure copper has increase to the point that the amount needed t omake a penny cost far more than the actual value of the penny. This lab allowed us to see just how much copper coating
