activities in different fruit juices Aim: To investigate the protease activities in different fruit juices Background info: Fruit such as pineapple‚ kiwi fruit‚ papaya and guava contain proteases (in different amounts)‚ which can speed up the breakdown of proteins. As milk-agar plate is a milk protein‚ so when it is incubated with fruit juices containing proteases‚ the milk protein will be broken down and clear zones will appear around the wells containing different fruit juices.

Can you expect to extract more DNA from a strawberry or kiwi fruit? Introduction: In the experiment we were inspecting the amount of genetic materials in fruits with different numbers of chromosomes. In the experiment‚ we mashed up a strawberry/kiwi fruit (See appendix 1 figure 2) added extraction butter and ethanol to extract the DNA. A chromosome is a long thread-like cluster of genes in the nucleus. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)‚ a self-replicating material which is present in nearly all living

Aim This experiment is to determine the vitamin C content in different brands of processed fruit juices. Hence‚ compare the vitamin C content in the experimental results with the manufacturer’s claim and to find out the best buy. Principle Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a reducing agent‚ the vitamin C content of processed fruit juices can be determined by oxidizing ascorbic acid‚ C6H8O6 to dehydro-L-ascorbic acid‚ C6H6O6. A reagent that is particularly good for the oxidation is an aqueous solution

Abstract The basic principle of Mendelian inheritance was studied using the fruit fly‚ Drosophila Melanogaster. A Cinnabar Brown female was crossed with Wild Type male. The flies were mated in a jar containing a nutrient medium and then placed in an incubator. The experiment was conducted over a period of 5 weeks. Cinnabar (cn) and brown (bw) are two loci in Drosophila with recessive eye colour mutations. Mutations in cn cause a bright red eye and mutations in bw cause a brown eye. Double mutants
