as a means to remedy deficits in enzyme level or function. In addition to serving as the catalysts for all metabolic processes‚ their impressive catalytic activity‚ substrate specificity‚ and stereospecificity enable enzymes to fulfill key roles in other processes related to human health and well-being. The absolute stereospecificity of enzymes is of particular value for use as soluble or immobilized catalysts for specific reactions in the synthesis of a drug or antibiotic.

Chemistry 512 – Jacobs Enzyme Catalyst Lab - Formal Report – August 8‚ 2007 ABSTRACT This investigation examined what would happen to the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction if the concentration of substrate changed. We hypothesized that if the concentration increased‚ then the reaction rate would also increase. To test our question‚ we varied a combination of substrate and buffer‚ totaling 6mL‚ with a constant amount of 2 drops of catalyst. The enzyme catalyst‚ peroxidase‚ increased the

Enzymes are biological catalysts that operate at the temperatures‚ pressures‚ and moderate pH values found in living organisms. They help in a faster chemical reaction in our human body. Besides this‚ enzymes also play a huge role in various industries. The following paragraphs will talk about how various enzymes are used in various industries : The Dairy Industry and Medical Industry. In the dairy industry‚ the enzyme Protease is used widely. While making cheese‚ protease helps coagulate milk

silylether and PhCO_2 H are both catalysts used so that the reaction will continue and result in an acyclonucleoside. This reaction proved that the 1‚4-addition is the preferable addition of the Michael addition reaction of alpha‚ beta-unsaturated aldehydes when nucleophiles are catalyzed by diphenylprolinol silyl ether. This addition gives the product high enantioselectivity. When the conditions of this reaction were researched‚ it was determined that if the catalyst had bulky substituents‚ the product

acid system was connected to the methyl oleate flask which also contained the Pd/C catalyst. The methyl oleate had an initial mass of 2.352g. As time passed‚ the bubbles produced in the mineral oil system were too few per second. As a result‚ I added an additional mass of 1.2457g of zinc to the hydrogen generator. Throughout the reaction process‚ the round bottom flask containing the methyl oleate and the catalyst was placed in a warm water bath at 40 degrees Celsius. After 45 mins‚ the reaction

How Does This Thing Work? It operates on a 100 year old proven technology called electrolysis. Whenever you place two pieces of metal in water‚ and apply electricity‚ the water separates into it’s basic molecules‚ Hydrogen and Oxygen (H2O). If you look at the picture on the left‚ you will see H2O molecules connected together in their liquid form which is WATER But when you apply electricity (from your car battery)‚ the molecules separate and form a GAS (called HHO) which is a mixture of

chemist‚ Michael Perrin‚ developed this accident into a reproducible high-pressure synthesis for polyethylene that became the basis for industrial LDPE production beginning in 1939. By the end of the 1950s both the Phillips- and Ziegler-type catalysts were being used for HDPE production. Phillips initially had difficulties producing a HDPE product of uniform quality and filled warehouses with off-specification plastic. However‚ financial ruin was unexpectedly averted in 1957 when the hula hoop

Latest Invention: Tea Bag that Uses Nanotechnology to Clean Drinking Water One of the latest inventions developed by researchers from Stellenbosch University in South Africa is a one of a kind "tea bag" that makes use of nanotechnology to clean drinking water‚ making it free from contaminants and bacteria. It would be interesting to note that the "tea bag" is made of the same material that is used to make the actual tea bags. The only difference is that in the Stellenbosch researchers’ invention
