The reactions and Results of Using Enzyme Turnip Root Peroxidase Lab results from: Andrew Compton‚ Mickey. Results published 9/29/2012. TA: In this series of laboratory experiments‚ my lab partner and I were to conduct an experiment about the oxidation rate of the enzyme peroxidase in the presence of its substrate guiacol. Also we used other substrates‚ such as hydroxylamine an enzyme inhibitor‚ to observe the weather the reaction rate was slowed down‚ sped up‚ or stopped reactions all together

varies from different wavelengths and intensities of light. This lab will evaluate the optimal wavelengths and degrees of intensity during photosynthesis when chloroplast is exposed to light. The mixtures of DCPIP with water‚ PO4 buffer‚ and chloroplast will be prepared in a number of cuvettes. The cuvettes were tested individually at different wavelengths and intensities to find the optimal rate of photosynthesis by using a spectrophotometer‚ measuring the greatest change in absorbance. From this experiment

Abstract: In this Lab we used the chemical DPIP to detect the rate of succinate broken down by the mitochondrial solution. We detected the amount of DPIP in the solution with a spectrophotometer and measuring the absorbance of light at the 600nm range. DPIP is a useful chemical to use in this experiment because it goes from a blue color when oxidized to a colorless liquid (Ogura‚ 281)‚ this is due to the hydrogen ions and electrons released during the transitional step between succinate and fumarate

exercise we studied enzyme catalase‚ which accelerates the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The purpose was to isolate catalase and measure the rate of activity under different conditions. The laboratory was also conducted in association with a second laboratory that measured the effects of an inhibitor on the enzymes. Changes in temperature and pH along with Substrate Concentration and Enzyme Concentration were the conditions tested in the experiment. Each lab was assigned

The overall experiment consisted of three smaller experiments as a result of the different properties chlorophylls possess and the need to test them individually to receive the most accurate results. Preparation for the lab began with selecting a medium to large spinach leaf and deveining it. Once the spinach was prepared‚ it was ground in 5 mL of 100% acetone‚ creating a green acetone extract. The extract was filtered through a funnel with a kimwipe and into a test tube. The volume of the filtered

Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

Are there any differences in the rate of metabolism of a dried yeast culture with differing carbohydrate sources? In the current practical that was undertaken the growth rate of yeast (S. cerevisiae) with differing carbohydrates sources : Glucose (C6H12O6)‚ Fructose (C6H12O6)‚ Lactose (C12H22O11)‚ Xylitol “(CHOH)3(CH2OH)2” and Water (H2O) as a Control were observed. “ Yeast are single-celled fungi which consist of more than one thousand different species which have been identified.

‚ saliva and hydrochloric acid was used in the second test. The enzyme involed in this test is salivary amylase which can found in saliva. Salivary Amylase‚ is called ptyalin it’s to break down starch to sugar. Things we ate is broken down in mouth by amylase. Amylase hydrolysed starch into a reducing sugar which can give beneduct test a positive result. Body temperature is the optimal temperature for the action of amylase. Enzymes are catalysts for any reactions. They provide an alternative way
