    not healthy. The problem of alcohol and drug abuse is of central concern nowadays. It is especially acute among the youth and this fact horrifies most of all. Today the statistics shows deplorable numbers of young people‚ drinking and taking drugs. Alcohol abuse is itself very harmful for a human organism‚ especially for a young one as it destroys brain cells and other organs. However‚ the harmful effect on different apparatuses is not the only harm brought by alcohol abuse. The consequences of alcoholic

    Enzyme Catalysis Abstract: Catalysis is an enzyme that decomposes hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. In this lab we will conduct a series of experiments to determine the affects of; pH‚ temperature‚ and concentration change on such catalysis. After completing the experiments we determined that catalase works most efficiently when in a 27°c‚ 50% (5 ml of catalase – 5ml of water)‚ and a normal body pH of 7°.

    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
