Also‚ fermentation is a popular commercially used process which can be used in various processes like conversion of sugars and other carbohydrates. Introduction Fermentation is a metabolic process converting sugar to acids‚ gases and/or alcohol using yeast or bacteria. In its strictest sense‚ fermentation is the absence of the electron transport chain and takes a reduced carbon source‚ such as glucose‚ and makes products like lactic acid or

Chapter 21 Notes: Kingdom Fungi! Name_________________________ 21-1: The Kingdom Fungi A. What Are Fungi? Fungi include MANY DIFFERENT types of organisms From tiny yeast cells To the one of the largest organisms in the world! Fungi are: Multicellular (except for yeasts) Eukaryotic Heterotrophic Decomposers: decompose dead and decaying material -Recyclers! -Secrete enzymes OUTSIDE bodies - Absorb digested nutrients Hyphae: long‚ slender‚ root-like filament Septa: cross-walls

The phenol- sulfuric acid method was used to determine the concentration of sugar content present in the substrate. The test revealed that the dilute acid hydrolysis is an effective way and can saccharify pineapple peelings based on the standard curve. However‚ the temperature and time was found out that they both have no significant difference in yielding greater

fuel‚ we consume food. Foods we eat made up nutrients and fuel substrates consisting of fat‚ protein‚ carbohydrates. Carbohydrates‚ when broken down‚ create glucose that is for energy or stored‚ turns into glycogen‚ when not in immediate use. Fat is broken down to triglycerides to be used for metabolic energy‚ and stored as fat when not in immediate use. Protein breaks down into a form of amino acids when used for energy. Carbohydrates and fat are mainly used for all metabolic needs to generate ATP;

of protein‚ thus each kind of enzymes has its unique active site‚ which only fits to complementary – shaped substrate to form product. Because of the feature of active site‚ each kind of enzymes therefore is specific for a particular reaction. However‚ there are several factors affect the rate of enzyme reactions‚ they are temperature‚ pH‚ concentration of enzyme‚ concentration of substrate and inhibitors. High temperature and pH affects the structure of enzyme‚ irreversible denaturation occurs‚ the

Abstract The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of temperature on the enzyme catalase. The original research question was exploring the effect temperature would have on a yeast catalase reacting with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). To address the latter question a series of experiments were conducted. The various temperatures experimented with were as follows: 22 degrees Celsius (room temperature)‚ 0 degrees Celsius (freezing)‚ 100 degrees Celsius (boiling)‚ and 37 degrees Celsius.
