    In bio lab‚ my lab partners and I did a lab experiment involving yeast fermentation. Fermentation is an anaerobic process to regenerate NAD+ to keep glycolysis active. Yeast preforms ethanol fermentation which create ethanol and NAD+. The class used six different types of sugars to determine which fuels fermentation by measuring the amount the carbon dioxide bubbles produced by the yeast. Yeast are single-cell fungi that cannot make their own food. They take the sugars in the surrounding environment

    The use of yeast as a food dates all the way back to the Ancient Egyptians. Note that unlike the yeast used to leaven bread‚ nutritional yeast is inactive. It has been deactivated so that it cannot be used to make bread rise or convert sugar into alcohol. It is also different from brewer’s yeast‚ though the two are strains of the same fungus. The main difference is the source. As its name suggests‚ brewer’s yeast is a product of the brewing industry; it is typically bitter because it is grown

    Abstract Carbohydrates are important in metabolic processes for everyday physical and chemical actions. The carbohydrate‚ glucose‚ is a key component in generating adenosine triphosphate‚ also known as ATP. In order to analyze unknown glucose levels‚ a DNS assay was performed. By using 2-hydroxy-3‚5-dinitrobenzoic acid to oxidize the aldehyde group on the carbohydrate‚ the reducing end of glucose increases in absorbance of 540 nm. Using a UV spectrophotometer‚ the concentration was calculated

    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 added to each the corresponding 1 mL of water from tubes A-D. As

    detoxifying hydrogen peroxide and preventing the formation of carbon dioxide bubbles in the blood.  This laboratory exercise involves the use of an enzyme that will react with hydrogen peroxide. The enzyme is catalase and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the substrate. The reaction is as follows: catalase 2H2O2 2H2O + O2 Ingested hydrogen peroxide is a poison‚ while external use of this substance is not. However‚ the generation of oxygen gas requires careful handling

    What is the difference between oxidative and substrate level phosphorylation? Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic pathway that uses energy released by the oxidation of nutrients to produce ATP. Oxidative phosphorylation uses the electrochemical gradient‚ set up by the oxidation of nutrients‚ of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane to generate ATP from ADP. During oxidative phosphorylation‚ electrons are transferred from electron donors to electron acceptors such as oxygen‚ in
