Alternately soak in saline containing 0.5% phenol for 24-48 hours in a refrigerator. 3. After cooling‚ filter through filter paper until completely clear. 4. Insert a few drops of antiserum in bottom of a small test tube and carefully add some of the filtrate down the side of the tube to form a layer of antigen above antiserum

In every chemical reaction‚ the starting materials (the substrate(s) in the case of enzymes) can take many different paths to forming products. For each path‚ there is an intermediate or transitional product between reactants and

Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to use staining techniques and biochemical testing to identify an unknown bacteria using Bergey’s manual. Bergey’s manual of Systematic Bacteriology is a dichotomous key primarily used to identify a bacterial species. Biochemical tests are used to differentiate different species of bacteria. These tests are effective in determining the characteristics of the microbe being tested. Such characteristics include citrate utilization‚ gelatin hydrolysis‚ nitrate

The effect of substrate concentration on the rate of enzyme activity of Catalase Aim To investigate the effect of substrate concentration (manipulated by increasing concentration of hydrogen peroxide) on the rate of enzyme activity of catalase‚ produced by liver cells‚ on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rates of reactions. In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction‚ the substrate binds to the active site and forms enzyme-substrate
