Effects of pH on fungal amylase activity BI 211 November 25‚ 2011 Introduction In recent years‚ the uses of microorganisms have become a huge importance to industry and sparked a large interest into the exploration of enzyme activity in microorganisms. Amylase is one of the most widely used enzyme required for the preparation of fermented foods. Apart from food and starch industries‚ in which demand for them is increasing continuously‚ amylase is also used in

ADVERSE EFFECTS OF PEOPLE ACTIVITIES The Greenhouse Effect Too much carbon dioxide and other gases emitted by factories are accumulating in the atmosphere. These gases allow sunlight to penetrate the earth’s atmosphere but unfortunately‚ they also trap radiant heat and revert its escape into outer space. The immediate consequence is Global Warming‚ which is better known as the Green House Effect The rise in the average temperature of the earth could have serious consequence. Among them is

The Effects of pH‚ Temperature‚ Enzyme‚ and Substrate Concentrations on Benzoquinone Production BIOL 2051 June 10th 2013 Introduction Enzymes are the ultimate catalysts of living things. Enzymes are made of proteins which are structured and directed by amino acids chains. Enzymes attract and fit substrate molecules to an active site. The active site binds the substrate molecules covalently to enzyme forming an enzyme-substrate complex‚ which catalyzes

The goal of this experiment was to explore how temperature would influence the rate of cellular respiration of beans. It was hypothesized that as the temperature of the beans increased‚ the rate of cellular respiration would increase as well. In this experiment‚ the independent variable was the temperature‚ which gradually increased as time went by‚ and the dependent variable was the rate of cellular respiration‚ which was shown by the change in the amount of CO2 and O2 in the container. During the

Introduction How does changing the surroundings of enzymes affect their reaction rate? The purpose of the experiment is to determine how different abiotic conditions affect the rate at which enzymes accelerate/cause reactions In this lab students measured the height of the foam after catalysis between catalase (enzyme) and 7 other (solutions) to determine which solution had the fastest reaction rate.. The control variable of the experiment would be the solution of only hydrogen peroxide‚ water

Enzyme kinetics (catalase/kmno4) Enzyme catalysis Farah Mohamed galal 22-3014 t09 Introduction: E + S → ES → E + P Enzymes are proteins which act as a catalyst in biochemical reactions(affect the rate of achemical reaction). The substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme. Any deformation of the active site will affect the activity of the enzyme‚ these are some ways that enzyme action may be affected because of them: 1- Salt concentration: If it is close to zero or very high

In the statistical analysis statistical formulas and techniques are used to analyze the significance of a set of data and the validity of the conclusions made based on that data. These are some terms and definitions that will be crucial to understanding the validity of this experiment. An enzyme is a protein that acts as a catalyst to lower the activation

inhibit a class of enzymes known as cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases. These enzymes are‚ in part responsible for degrading a stimulatory signal produced when excitatory neurotransmitters activate different neurons in the central nervous system (CNS). Thus‚ when they are inhibited by caffeine‚ the stimulatory signal remains active for a longer period of time resulting in a greater sense of alertness (a CNS effect) but also a higher heart rate‚ blood pressure and respiratory rate. Caffeine also acts
