Maryely Ramirez Professor Theresa Sterner Bio Lab 105 04 November 2013 The Effects Environmental Temperature and pH have on the Activity of Porcine Pancreatic Amylase Introduction There are many types of enzymes and each has a specific job. Enzymes are particular types of proteins that help to speed up some reactions‚ such as reactants going to products. One of them is the amylase enzyme. Amylases are found in saliva‚ and pancreatic secretions of the small intestine. The function of amylase is

Processing consists of roughly eight steps: preparing the cart‚ catching the piglet‚ giving them shots‚ docking the tail‚ cutting the umbilical cord‚ tagging the piglet’s ear‚ completing the paperwork and spraying iodine on the cuts. These are the steps you will take if you are processing piglets on a genetic

ABSTRACT Enzymes are highly specific and can distinguish isomers of the same molecule. The enzyme invertase specifically catalyzes the reaction of the conversion of sucrose to its individual carbohydrates glucose and fructose. It does not catalyse the reaction of maltose to 2 glucose or lactose to galactose. In this experiment‚ titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods were used to determine the specificity of invertase by determining the amount of glucose converted from the given disaccharides

and you add Bieuret reagent into each‚ then the gelatin will change color. Hypothesis F1: If you add Benedict’s solution to the urine sample and boil it‚ then it will change color‚ indicating that glucose is present. Hypothesis F2: If you add iodine to the urine sample‚ then it will turn color‚ stating that there is a starch present. Hypothesis F3: If you add Biuret’s solution to the patient’s urine sample‚ then it will change color‚ meaning a protein‚ or child‚ is present. Hypothesis F4: If

In doing the lab‚ one was able to determine the characteristics of the given solutions‚ containing different macromolecules‚ whilst doing the multiple tests. The tests performed were‚ iodine testing for starch and glycogen‚ Benedict’s test for reducing sugars‚ and the Biuret’s test for protein. Depending on the test performed‚ certain results acquired‚ clearly identified the macromolecules present in each solution. With the aid of the

The method used to separate that mixture is Extraction. Extraction is the distribution of a solute in two immiscible solvents. The substances that separated are H2O and Iodine crystals with N-hexane. The iodine crystals have a very low solubility in water and it dissolves quickly when it combines with N-hexane and when

Introduction Chromatography is a technique used to separate a mixture into its individual components. In this experiment‚ chromatography is done by using a thin layer chromatography (TLC) plate and filter paper. The word ‘chromatography’ itself means the separation of colours. However‚ nowadays‚ both coloured and colourless compound are used in chromatography by various methods. In chromatography‚ the separation process of mixture is mainly based upon the polarity and molecular weight of sample
