The Case Against Mercury Amalgam The August issue of “Nature” a high end science journal printed an article with the following information. RNA polymerase chain elongation is stopped by mercury chloride. RNA polymerase contain a sulfahydral active center which is inhibited by mercury. This means that copies of RNA will not be created and this will limit the amount of certain proteins and enzymes available during critical times in development and growth. http://www.youtube.com/watch

reactants can be brought together to react. These reactants are called substrates that fin into the enzyme. The changing of heat‚ surface area‚ chemicals‚ and pH will denature the shape of the enzyme‚ not allowing it to do its function. Testing on peroxidase- an enzyme- will be done on an animal enzyme (chicken liver) and a plant enzyme (potato). For testing Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) will be poured over the enzymes. When the enzymes in the potato or liver combine with the substrate Hydrogen Peroxide
