    Title: “The Effect of Substrate Concentration‚ Enzyme Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity” Abstract: In the following experiments we will measure precise amounts of potato extract as well as Phenylthiourea‚ combined with or without deionized water and in some instances change the temperature and observe and record the reaction. We will also investigate the different levels of prepared pH on varying samples of the potato extract and the Phenylthiourea and record the results.

    Omar Shbeeb Toothpick Enzyme Lab 9/25/13 Introduction Enzymes are used in all metabolic reactions to control the rate of reactions and decrease the amount of energy necessary for the reaction to take place. They are responsible for the thousands of chemical interconversions that sustain life. Enzymes are referred to highly selective catalysts‚ meaning they speed up the rate of metabolic reactions. To react‚ they need to find a perfect match with a substrate. They converge at a place called an

    pH on Enzyme Activity Athenaa Jeyachandran Mr.Menes Course Code January 21st‚ 2013 The Effect on Enzyme Activity Due to Temperatures Purpose: The purpose of this lab experiment is to examine how different temperatures affect enzyme activity using hydrogen peroxide. Hypothesis: My hypothesis for this experiment is that temperatures near body temperature is when enzyme activity will be at its highest. I believe this will occur because in our body‚ enzymes are very

    Introduction Enzymes are key players in metabolism. A metabolism is the organic processes in a cell or an organism that are necessary for life. An enzyme affects the rate at which a reaction occurs when the activation energy is lowered. In this reaction the reactant is called the substrate which is that combine with enzymes molecules to form a temporary enzyme substrate complex. During this products are formed and the enzyme molecules released is unchanged. For the substrate complex to form the

    The objectives of this experiment were to investigate the activity of enzymes‚ components that influence the enzyme’s activity‚ identify an unknown phosphatase‚ influence of inhibitors‚ and determine if inhibition is competitive or noncompetitive. A spectrophotometer evaluated the measurement of color change over a period time due to product being formed. Determining unknown phosphatase and effects from different inhibitors were determined by varying the pH and substrate concentrations. The unknown

    concentration of substrate‚ on the activity of the enzymes. By conducting these three separate experiments also‚ three graphs are able to be obtained where the trend of each factor affecting on the enzyme activity is shown and described clearly. II. Hypothesis Experiment 1 (Effect of Temperature): As the temperature increases‚ the height of the bubble will increase too‚ indicating a faster rate of reaction. Experiment 2 (Effect of pH): Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. Extremely high or

    Lab Introduction: Catalase is an enzyme normally found in many plant and animal tissues. Its purpose is to destroy toxic substances which may be introduced into cells. Also‚ some cells use catalase to destroy cellular debris or worn out organelles. In this lab‚ we will use a catalase solution from potatoes and determine the effect of temperature and pH on the action of this enzyme. The substrate of the enzyme will be 3% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Catalase works by the following mechanism: 2 H2O2
