THE EFFECT OF INCREASING THE CONCENTRATION OF DETTOL ANTISEPTIC LIQUID ON THE GROWTH OF E.COLI Background: Escherichia coli are rod shaped‚ gram negative bacteria often found in the gut of humans and other warm-blooded mammals (Jacques & Ngo‚ 2004). It is transmitted primarily through faecal contaminated food and water. Most strains of E. coli are not harmful to humans‚ however some strains are pathogenic and can cause symptoms including diarrhoea (Unknown‚ 2012). The active ingredient in Dettol

EXPERIMENT TO SHOW THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATION OF GLUCOSE ON POTATO STRIPS INTRODUCTION: Molecules of liquid and gas are constantly in motion‚ they move randomly in all directions and bounce around in all directions and bounce around and into each other. As they move‚ they tend to spread out moving from areas with many molecules to areas with fewer molecules . This process of spreading out is called Diffusion‚ for example smell of cooking travelling around the house from the kitchen

Reaction Rates of Barley Alpha Amylase with Starch at Specific pH ’s and Temperatures Page 1 Abstract Enzyme ’s are used as catalysts in certain reactions. They help lower the activation energy needed for the reaction to go to completion. At optimum temperature and pH the amount of collisions of substrate and enzyme is at its highest‚ any deviation from the optimum temperature and pH will result in the denaturization of the enzyme. The purpose of this experiment is to find the optimum

Biology Investigation: Effect of different concentrations of sucrose solutions on the mass of potatoes Research question Is the mass of potatoes going to be smaller or bigger in different sucrose concentration? Introduction Osmosis is a process that occurs at a cellular level that entails the spontaneous net movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration in order to equalize the level of water

Dissolved Oxygen Lab Be sure to read and understand the below instructions BEFORE the lab! Experiment 1: Investigating the Effect of Temperature and Salinity on the Concentration of Dissolved Oxygen in Water Introduction: In an aquatic environment‚ oxygen must be in a solution in a free state (O2) before it is available for use by organisms (bio-available). Its concentration and distribution in the aquatic environment are directly dependent on chemical and physical factors and are greatly affected

are carrying out an investigation to find out how different concentrations of glucose affect osmosis in potato cells. Osmosis is the passive process of diffusing water which means within this experiment particles of water will move from a lower concentrated area to an area of higher concentration ; in this case it will be a concentration of glucose. Diffusion is when particles move from an area of high concentration to low concentration ; for example when a smell of cooking spreads through the house

AIM The aim of this investigation is to explore the effect of different concentrations of bile salts on the time taken for the lipase enzyme to break down fat. BILE Bile is a brownish bitter alkaline fluid produced by the liver and made by the hepatocytes from water‚ bile salts‚ bile pigments cholesterol and phospholipids and stored in the gall bladder. Bile is directly connected with digestion. It is released sporadically into the small intestine (duodenum) which is part of the gut in order

supernatant liquid and denser slurry having a higher concentration of solids. This is usually accomplished by allowing the particles to settle through the force of gravity‚ mechanically using centrifugal force‚ or electrostatically using an electric current. Continuous sedimentation tanks are usually used in wastewater treatment facilities to separate suspended particles from wastewater. This experiment aims to determine the effect of initial concentration and initial height of the slurry on its settling
