Enzyme Activity Over Different Concentrations and Effects The goals of this experiment were to examine the effectively of enzymes on samples of different enzyme concentrations and substrate concentrations. In addition‚ the experiment tested how effective enzymes are on samples of pH levels and temperature levels. A. Effect of Enzyme Concentration Hypothesis: With half as much enzyme concentration then the reaction rate will be half as much than when the enzyme concentration is equal

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 up the rate of enzyme activity and any

Effects of Changes in Physical Properties on Enzyme Activity By Alex Hoffmann First Individual Lab Report Wednesday 7:30-10:15pm 10/24/12 Meghan Duell Abstract The goal of this lab was to determine the effects of certain physical properties on enzyme activity. Enzyme activity was measured by the height of the bubbles that appeared after the enzyme was added which are proportional to the rate of the reaction when time is constant. The fact that enzyme activity is affected by physical properties

Scientists have also exploited their knowledge of microbes to produce biotechnologically important enzymes such as Taq polymerase‚ reporter genes for use in other genetic systems and novel molecular biology techniques such as the yeast two-hybrid system. Bacteria can be used for the industrial production of amino acids. Corynebacterium glutamicum is

Effect of Temperature ( C ͦ) on Enzyme Catalase Activity in potato Aim: To investigate the Effect of temperature (10‚ 37‚ 60) Celsius (C ͦ) on enzyme catalase activity in potato using 2% of hydrogen peroxide (H202) as the substrate measuring the height (cm) of oxygen gas (bubbles) and calculating the volume of oxygen bubbles produced (cm3) Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up metabolic reactions without being affected. They lower the activation energy needed to start

Lab Report (Effect of concentration on enzyme activity) Biology Noor Alawadhi 11- KC Introduction: An Enzyme is a protein‚ which is capable of starting a chemical reaction‚ which involves the formation or breakage of chemical bonds. A substrate is the surface or material on or from which an organism lives‚ grows‚ or obtains its nourishment. In this case it is hydrogen peroxide. This lab report will be explaining the experiment held to understand the effects of the changes in the amount of

(Justification-2 Enzyme Inhibition) By quantitative balance‚ the total amount of Enzyme is [E] 0= [E] + [EI] + [ES] + [ESI]. By using a=1+[I]/KI and a′=1+[I]/K′I‚ it is followed by [E]0=[E]a+[ES]a′ This equation can be written like this‚ [E]0=(Km[ES])/([S]0)a + [ES]a′=[ES]( aKm/[S}0+a’)‚ because of Km=[E][S]/[ES] and [S]≈[S]0. V=kb [ES] =kb [E] 0/ (aKm/[s] 0+a’). Kb [E] 0 is Vmax. This is why V=Vmax/(a^’+aKm/[S]0). This equation can be rearranged like this‚ 1/V= a’/Vmax+(aKm/Vmax)1/[S]0‚ which is

Wonder why your mom is behind you everyday insisting on having breakfast when you leave for college‚ school or work? Well she is right. Breakfast is important for each one of us. Let’s find out how? Breakfast which literally means breaking an overnight fast is the first meal of the day. This is the most important meal of the day. According to Ayurveda as well‚ food is digested best in the morning. Thus‚ heavy food stuffs like paranthas‚ laddoos‚ etc. can be had in the morning. This is because

being digested with EcoRI restriction endonucleasse. Procedures: λ DNA and puC18 DNA were put into two tubes respectively. Then‚ EcoRI buffer‚ EcoRI enzyme and deionized water would be put into both tubes. EcoRI enzyme was the restriction enzyme that cut the DNA at the specific sequence. The EcoRI buffer enhanced the stability of many enzymes and binds contaminants that may be present in DNA preparations. DI water was used to bring the solution into a required volume for gel electrophoresis.

Observing Enzyme Activity Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to test whether the pH affected the enzyme reaction rate. Hypothesis: If the enzyme is in a basic solution‚ then it will react faster because the enzyme (catalase) reacts better in basic solutions.
