Bio-Rad Protein Assay INTRODUCTION Proteins are large complex organic macromolecules which are utilized for many important roles in the body. Proteins function in structure‚ transport‚ energy conversions‚ and play an important role in defense against diseases. Protein is also important for muscle recovery‚ which is why it is commonly associated with fitness. Though your body will always absorb 1g of protein the same way every time‚ protein companies like to make their product competitive

Ellen Grant Honors Bio I Organic Compounds Problems and Objectives: The purpose of this lab was to select the suitable test for an organic molecule and define the safe process for that test. An organic molecule is normally found in or produced by living systems. (Unknown Author‚ 2014‚ www.biology-online.org/organic_molecule)In this lab one was supposed to infer the results of the test and be able to identify if major biomolecules are present. You were to analyze a variety of tests including

1a. Aquaporins are membrane proteins that have fourteen various structures however the most common form is that of a homotetramer. The homotetramer is often found in the membrane and composed of four aquaporin membranes. The structural arrangement creates a fifth channel in the middle that allows for gas transportation. 1b. The direction of H2O molecular flow through a channel is determined by an osmotic gradient. 1c. One of the mechanisms that prevents proton channeling is due to the (ar/R) and

Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

Unit 10: Biological Molecules and Metabolic Pathways C: Explore the factors that can affect the pathways and the rate of photosynthesis in plants The following report is about the factors which can affect the pathways and the the rate of photosynthesis in plants. This report will cover what photosynthesis is ‚ the factors which may affect photosynthesis in working poorly‚ light independant and dependant reaction. An investigation will be carried out which will include the factors that affect photosynthesis

Chemistry Lab Report Water Hydration Introduction: A hydrated crystal or hydrated occurs when water becomes tightly attracted to a metal salt base on it’s polarity. The water molecules maintain integrity as molecules‚ however they are considered to be part of the formula of the hydrate. When the hydrate metal salt crystal is heated‚ the attractions to the water are broken by the heat energy and the water escape from the crystal. After heating the salt crystal is called as anhydrous‚ which
