The Effect of Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity Biology For Majors October 4‚ 2012 Abstract We examined the reaction an enzyme has when its concentration‚ pH and temperature are altered. In order to do this‚ we added different levels of pH into different test tubes with the enzyme (sucrose)‚ and substrate (sucrose)‚ and we then inverted the tube. The higher pH produced more enzyme activity. Temperature effects enzyme activity by decreasing its stability when the temperature

Optimal Level of Sugar for Yeast to Produce the Largest Volume of CO2? Purpose The purpose of this lab is to determine whether there is an optimal level of sugar added to well water for the added yeast to produce the largest volume of carbon dioxide. Background Information What is yeast? Yeast‚ whose scientific name is Saccharomyces Cerevisiae‚ are single-celled organisms that are a part of the fungi group. Yeast is very capable of alcoholic fermentation‚ where yeast cells primarily break down

Yeast Experiment – Temperature Yeast fermentation is affected by temperature as an outcome of the many different temperatures that yeasts are exposed to. The accepted value for yeasts optimum temperature is approximately 66.667 degrees Celsius. If yeast is exposed to their optimum temperature‚ then this would create the most amount of fermentation. In this experiment however‚ the yeast were exposed to temperatures below their optimum. The chemical reactions within yeast are facilitated by enzymes;

construction material and magnetic materials fields. Temperature of ball mill has an important impact on the quality of products. To understand the issue of temperature control of ball mill can better finish grinding. Temperature of ball mill is big issue. Appropriate temperature must be set in production. Temperature not only affects the properties of ball mill material but also the grinding performance of grinding materials. The normal temperature of ball mill is high and there are many reasons

Title of Experiment: The Effect of Temperature on the Hatching Success of Brine Shrimps. Abstract In this experiment‚ 40 brine shrimp eggs are put into a test tube containing salt water at different temperature such as 25°C and 35°C respectively. The eggs are left from two days to hatch. After two days‚ the number of eggs successfully hatched are observed and counted. Introduction Brine shrimp is the common name for a primordial crustacean that reaches less than 1.3 cm in length and is usually

cannot be used as directly by cell as a source of energy so cells use ATP as their immediate source of energy. * This conversion of glucose into ATP takes place during cellular respiration and there are 2 different forms of cellular respiration depending upon whether oxygen is available or not * Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces CO2‚ water and lots of ATP. * Aerobic has 4 stages: 1) Glycolysis – the splitting of the 6-carbon glucose molecule into 2 3-carbon molecule

Biochemistry CP2085 Effect of Temperature‚ Study and Measure of Enzymes Activity Abstract This experiment investigates the effect that temperature has on the rate of activity of enzyme β-galactosidase and also the rate of β-galactosidase activity in different concentration of substrate over time. Ο-nitrophenylgalactoside (ONPG) is used as a substrate for β-galactosidase. A spectrophotometer is used to detect the change in colour of the substrate. Results show that increase in temperature up to 50oC speeds

Candidiasis Commonly known as the Yeast Infection Candidiasis is an infection caused by Candida fungi‚ especially Candida Albicans. These fungi are found almost everywhere in the environment. Some may live harmlessly along with the abundant "native" species of bacteria that normally grow the mouth‚ gastrointestinal tract and vagina. Usually‚ Candida is kept under control by the native bacteria and by the body’s immune defenses. If the native bacteria are decreased by antibiotics or if the person’s

Fermentation Lab Report Introduction: Fermentation‚ a type of anaerobic respiration that breaks down glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide without the use of oxygen‚ is extremely vital in food processing. Especially useful in the making of bread and wine is yeast‚ a single-celled fungus. The rate of fermentation of these products can be done by measuring the amount of carbon dioxide produced by the work of the yeast. The specific variable we tested was the volume of fructose in each vial solution
