    The Determination of the Effect of pH on Amylase Activity Grace Chung Abstract: Amylase is an important enzyme in the human body as it allows for the consumption of starch by breaking the polysaccharide down into maltose units. All enzymes‚ including amylase‚ function best at a certain optimal pH. Therefore‚ in this experiment‚ the effect of different pHs on the reaction rate of amylase is studied. It was hypothesized that the amylase-starch reaction would proceed fastest at a pH closest to

    HINTS ON WRITING YOUR REPORT Title: Enzyme activity Objective: To investigate the effect of temperature on amylase activity Design principle Background: Amylase activity  products? (show the equation) Which factors will affect enzyme activity? How to study the rate of reaction? (e.g. rate of disappearance of substrates or rate of formation of products) Independent variable: temperature of reaction mixture or at which the enzymatic reaction occurs. It can be varied by setting water bath at

    How Temperature Affects Amylase Activity Abstract This study of the effect of temperature on the enzyme amylase was performed to determine the relationship between the enzyme amylase and temperature. The rate of reaction was found to increase as the temperature of the environment was raised. As the temperature was raised from 5°C‚ 20°C‚ 35°C and finally to 80°C the rate of reaction followed this trend and also increased. However as predicted in the hypothesis of this experiment when the temperature

    Introduction Enzymes are protein based structures that help speed up chemical reactions. They help these reactions keep up with the everyday metabolic needs and other like functions of organisms. Enzymes are also considered catalysts‚ due to the lowering in activation energy‚ in which they are not consumed or changed at any point during the reaction. These enzymes have three main protein structures that help keep them formed and intact. Stage 1 of these structures is the primary structure‚ which

    BIOLOGY IA A Factor That Will Affect Enzyme Activity The Question Effects on Enzyme activity: investigating the effects of mixing Hydrogen Peroxide with Catalase extracted from potatoes at different temperatures‚ and then comparing the results with the same method‚ except to replace the Potato juice with MnO2 Hypothesis Since enzymes are a type of protein‚ they will be destroyed at high temperatures and activity rates will go down at low temperatures. Also‚ if done at low temperature

    The purpose of this review paper is to discuss the effect of temperature on enzyme- catalyzed reactions. This is relevant because many diseases can be diagnosed and controlled by the processes of enzyme activity (Worthington 2015). If more information is not found about enzyme activity and how it is affected‚ many diseases may go undiagnosed and uncontrolled. Temperature is a type measurement that does not only consist of heat. It is the measurement of the mean kinetic energy of any group of particles

    Examination of the Effects of Inhibitory and Non-Inhibitory Competition‚ Enzyme-Substrate Concentration‚ Along with Varying Temperature and pH-Balanced Environments on the Enzyme-Catalyzed Reaction of pNPP Abstract: Introduction: Many of the chemical reactions‚ which take place in in living things are controlled by enzymes. In such cases‚ the enzyme is a protein in the cell which lowers the activation energy of a catalyzed reaction‚ which serves to increase the rate of the reaction. Alkaline

Hypothesis: Null Hypothesis: If the concentration of the Hydrogen Peroxide is changed then there would be no change in the reaction rate. Alternate Hypothesis 1:  I there is an increase in concentration in concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide then the reaction rate of the liver catalase will increase. Alternate Hypothesis 2: If there is an increase
