ENZYME LAB REPORT 1. In your own words‚ define objective qualitative and objective quantitative data. DO NOT USE EXAMPLES AS YOUR SOLE DEFINITION. (3) There are two different types of information that can be obtained from research. The types of information that can be obtained are quantitative and qualitative data. Research results are considered qualitative when the results can be answered with a simple statement of yes or no. Qualitative data does not attempt to give a numerical value; instead

The Effect of Temperature on the Enzyme Catalase Stephen Francis Biology 183 Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the resultant effect of temperature change on the reaction between the enzyme catalase and hydrogen peroxide. This experiment was performed by measuring and comparing the amount of oxygen bubbles produced and the absorbance of the catalase and hydrogen peroxide solution over time at room temperature‚ 2°C‚ 50°C‚ and 60°C. The overall result of this experiment proved

and Virology. The objective of my thesis was to produce and characterize thermostable β-Galactosidase enzyme‚ which has been explored in various biotechnological‚ industrial‚ medical and analytical applications. The focus of research was not only limited to thermo stability of β-Galactosidase‚ but also to the production of large amount of enzyme in a short period of time. The β-Galactosidase enzyme hydrolyzes lactose into galactooligosaccharides‚ which are suitable for lactose-intolerant people and

Core Practical: Enzyme concentrations and enzyme activity. Introduction In this experiment I shall investigate how the enzyme concentration can affect the initial rate of reaction. I will measure the effect of the enzyme in 5 different concentrations against the controlled variable of the reactant. The enzyme which will be used is different concentrations of potato and the reactant used will be Hydrogen Peroxide. Hydrogen Peroxide which will be the buffer solution is a PH of 7.2. My hypothesis

BIOLOGY HSC NOTES MAINTAINING A BALANCE • Identify the role of enzymes in metabolism‚ describe their chemical composition and use a simple model to describe their specificity on substrates. Enzymes are protein molecules that allow the body to engage in chemical reactions‚ such as metabolism. There activities can be catalytic (being able to control the rate of either increasing/decreasing chemical reaction) Enzymes have a specific shape‚ and this shape must be intact‚ otherwise the effectiveness

In the first part of the lab‚ we prepared a salivary amylase solution and aggregated acetic acid to detect the presence of mucin. Then‚ 4 test tubes were made of the following: Tube 1 = 3 ml starch + water + 37 degrees water bath; Tube 2 = 3 ml starch + saliva in water bath; Tube 3 = 3 ml starch

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effects of changes in temperatures and pH on enzyme activity in skeletal muscle‚ particularly the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚

Abstract: Enzymes are part of human’s everyday lives and improve the quality of living. Enzymes decrease activation energy which pertains to how much energy is needed for chemical reactions to take place. Enzymes also known as catalysts is one of the main factors in producing energy in individual’s bodies. The experiment conducted was to test how different temperatures effected the catabolizing of fungal and bacterial amylase‚ as well as the optimal temperature needed for the enzyme to correlate

Temperature and enzyme activity Aim: To determine the effect of which the temperature of the enzyme has on the rate of the enzyme catalysed reaction. Hypothesis: The rate of reaction of an enzyme catalysed reaction will increase as the temperature of the enzyme approaches the optimum temperature. Surpassing the optimum temperature will result in a drop in enzyme activity. Materials: 6% hydrogen peroxide Liver suspension 10 test tubes 4 beakers Thermometers Measuring cylinders Test

Cells are the structural and functional units of all living organisms; each specialised to perform dedicated duties throughout their life span. All living organisms can be sorted into one of two groups depending on the fundamental structure of their cells. These two groups are the prokaryotes and the eukaryotes. A Prokaryote cell is the first form of cells for many millions of years until the eukaryote cell evolved from the prokaryote cell‚ which created life. Prokaryote cells are organisms made
