Functionality At Various Ph Level Abstract Enzymes can be denatured at various ph levels in which then affects the shape of the enzymes structure and reactivity. The altering of shape causes substrates to not bind in the active site (Scott Freeman‚ Micheal Harrington‚ Joan. C Sharp‚ 2009). Amylase is used as a catalytic enzyme to determine the time period to convert starch into glucose monomers and transport into the bloodstream at different ph levels. Methods involved

What pH Level Causes a Plant to Grow Best Alexis Chavez‚ Heather Nutt‚ Nguyen Phan Introduction We knew that water is normally stated as the best form of liquid to make sure plants grow as best as they can‚ but we wanted to know if causing the water to be more basic or more acidic would affect how the plant grew. Our hypothesis was that if the plant is treated with a pH of 12 then treated with another pH. Materials The materials used were three identical plants‚ that each had 4 sections that were

transmission at pH 2. At pH 9 the Trypsin has 39% light transmission. Between pH 2 and pH 9 the percentage of light transmission decreases at a steady rate‚ until it reaches pH 8 where there is a steep increase from 30% to 39% as the enzyme has reached its optimum pH at 8. During the experiment in the boiling tube this pH had the deepest red colour as the most protein gelatine was broken up. This meant that in the colorimeter when testing to see what the light transmission‚ this pH let the least light

Effects of Temperature on Enzyme Biology Introduction In order to understand the activity of enzymes at different temperatures the ability of the enzyme to function can be measured. This is important in many applications such as Polymerase Chain Reaction for forensics as well as genetics research where manipulation of temperature-dependent enzymes allows for replication of DNA segments. Bennett states‚ “when the energy - measured

at different pHs Abstract These experiments aimed to determine the optimum pH ranges various buffers are effective and provide opportunity for the use of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to prepare a buffer of a specific pH. Three different buffer systems were initially investigated; volumes of weak acid and weak bases of specified concentration were prepared and titrated against strong acid or strong base solutions with pH readings taken at frequent intervals to determine pH ranges over which

Bean Growth with Different pH Levels Through this experiment‚ the objective was to find which pH liquid created the best environment for the Mung beans to grow. First‚ the beans were placed into bags with different pH liquids. Then‚ measurements were taken each day to monitor the growth average of the beans. The pH 2 beans average size at the end of the experiment were 0.24 cubic centimeters‚ the pH 7 size average was 0.38 cubic centimeters‚ and the size average of the pH 2 beans was 0.24 cubic centimeters

manuscript. (Page 8‚ line 13-15) Comment 14: Page 8: Explain if pH was controlled during fermentation. In any case‚ do a reference in the result section to the pH at the end of fermentation Response: The pH was not directly controlled during the fermentation. In the line with typical studies conducted for ABE production‚ the medium was supplemented with buffer (50 g/L KH2PO4‚ 50 g/L K2HPO4‚ 220 g/L C2H3O2NH4) as an approach to control the pH changes during the fermentation. In addition‚ it has been reported

Matthew Saldanha Bio DCP lab-Catalase experiment Aim: To investigate enzyme kinetics‚ using different concentration of the enzyme. Hypothesis: The assay system used in the lab consists of a filter paper disc coated with the enzyme and the dropped into a papercup of substrate (Hydrogen Peroxide). As the hydrogen breaks down the hydrogen peroxide into hydrogen and oxygen gas‚ the bubbles of oxygen gas collect underneath the filter and make it
