four food apple sauce‚ carrot juice‚ cracker juice‚ and turkey juice contain protein‚ starch‚ or sugar. Between these four foods two are positive for sugar which are apple sauce and carrot juice. Sugar is an organic molecule of carbohydrate and so is starch. The starch was positive in two of the foods which are cracker juice and carrot juice. Protein is its own organic molecule and only one food tested positive for protein and it is the turkey juice. Introduction The “Food Lab” was used to answer

Objective: The main objective for this lab was to use the Bradford and DC Protein Assay in order to determine our concentration of E. Coli BL21(DE3) lysate. Principle of Methods: To accomplish this objective‚ each pair of lab partners received an E. Coli lysate sample which we had to thaw by warming it with our hands and centrifuge it. We extracted a total of 12 samples with known concentrations of bovine serum albumin and 10 samples of different amounts of lysate put into them. Using the different

BIURET FOOD TEST FOR PROTEINS molecules consisting of one or more chains of amino acids.Proteins are complex molecules that react differently to many compounds but are also fragile and cannot withstand high temperatures or strong acids and bases without degrading. The Biuret Method‚ or biuret test‚ is used to detect the presence of peptide bonds. It has this name because it reacts positively to the biuret molecule’s peptide bonds. Correctly evaluating the number of peptide bonds is a step towards

monomers called proteins are important to our body. Protein is important because it composes parts of our body and assists in bodily functions. A type of protein named keratin makes up our hair and nails. Protein is used in your body to repair and build tissue‚ and it is a necessity in making hormones‚ enzymes‚ and other chemicals in the body. Many people use protein substances and supplements in correlation with weight lifting and working out to strengthen muscles with the protein characteristics

Abstract The objective of this lab was to measure the amount of protein from a piece of beef liver . This was done by taking the liver‚ blending it and then using a centrifuge to separate the supernatant from the pellet. Once that was completed‚ ammonium sulfate was added to the supernatant‚ chilled and then spun for a second time. Next‚ 20 mL of water is added to the pellet‚ stirred and the volume was recorded. The teacher calculated the total mass of liver to be 10.098g. Lastly a spectronic

Insertion and amplification of EGFP protein into pET41a(+) Plasmid Introduction The overall purpose of the experiments conducted is to test the creation of recombinant plasmid using recombinant DNA technology. The research of recombinant DNA began with the use of E.Coli (Escherichia coli)‚ a common bacteria found in the intestines of warm-blooded or- ganisms (5). Scientists worked together and generated a way‚ from cloning and using recombi- nant research‚ to achieve recombinant DNA

PROTEIN Prior to completing the lab experiment‚ it was predicted that whipping cream‚ soy milk‚ and the flour solution would all contain proteins. Looking back at the collected observations it can be concluded that the hypothesized statements were all deemed accurate. However‚ corn syrup was the only substance that did not test positive for proteins. This abnormality was researched‚ and it is now clear why only three out of the four substances tested positive for proteins. To start‚ it was hypothesized

Proteins are the building blocks of our cells. The proteins that are in our body and ingested are broken down into amino acids and used throughout the body. Our bodies need protein to provide fuel to do the basic of functions. Protein helps to give energy and helps with muscles‚ bones‚ and cells growth. There are two different types of proteins. Complete protein provides all the amino acids that are needed within the body. Incomplete proteins provide some but not all of the necessary amino
