CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Design of Experiment (DOE) was developed in early 1920’s by Sir Ronald Fisher at the Rothamsted Agriculture Field Research Station in London‚ England. DOE can be used to observe how the design factor or parameters affect the performances. DOE also used to planning‚ designing and analyzing the experiment so that the objectives can be achieved and obtain effective results. The use of DOE in experiment reduce the time and effort with the availability of modern simulation

Concentration The Problem In many colleges over 8% of the students report problems concentrating on their studies. Most of these students blame outside distractions for their problems. Many research studies manipulating noise levels and distractions have found that such disturbances may increase‚ decrease‚ or not even affect concentration. These researchers have therefore concluded that distracters don’t cause concentration problems directly. It is the way the distracters are interpreted

Chemistry lab report Experiment 32 Voltaic Cell Measurements Dinmukhamed Yeraly Partner Azamat Bashabayev General Chemistry II lab Instructor Rostislav Bukasov Nazarbayev University Introduction Most of the chemical reactions can be classified as redox reactions‚ which include two half reactions‚ oxidation and reduction respectively. To measure the tendency for a readox reaction to occur‚ special apparatus called voltaic cell can be used. It is made by connecting a voltmeter between

the solvents that had beetroot‚ .9% saline had a color intensity of .002‚ 1% acetone had .009‚ 25% acetone produced an intensity of .119‚ 50% with the intensity of .647‚ 1% alcohol had .006‚ 25% alcohol had .022‚ and 50% alcohol had .177. The highest concentration of acetone inflicted more damage on the membrane of the beetroot causing it to leak its betacyanin in a higher intensity than any of the other solvents had caused. Acetone and methanol can both cause damage to the membrane of the beetroot b

tyrosinase activity Abstract: The purpose of our research utilizing the different pH levels was to test how a specific pH level would impact tyrosinase activity. First we added 4.0 mL of pH in each corresponding test tube and then added 0.5 mL of substrate (catechol) into each test tube. In the instructions it says to apply your 0.5 mL of tyrosinase (potato extract) as well but you have to blank the spectrophotometer before. The results from this experiment confirms that our hypothesis of a neutral

EXPERIMENT NO. 1 INTRODUCTION TO LAB INSTRUMENTS. 1. BREADBOARD We should be familiar to the following things about a breadboard: * What is a breadboard and what is it used for? * How does it work? * Setting Up. * Limitations. What is a breadboard and what is it used for? A breadboard (or protoboard) is usually a construction base for prototyping of electronics. The term "breadboard" is commonly used to refer to a solderless breadboard (plugboard). It was designed by

Experiments described were performed by me and/or my lab group and this write-up is entirely my own creative work.” X________________________________________ Introduction Enzymes are protein molecules that speed up the rate of reactions by reducing the activation energy of a reaction. They act as catalysts in reactions‚ increasing the rate at which a normally spontaneous reaction occurs without being changed themselves. Without enzymes‚ life would not exist because they are vital to the normal

Task 1 • Describe the structure of an enzyme as a protein‚ in terms of tertiary/ quaternary structures. 1) Primary Structure This is in reference to the order of way that amino acids are connected to form a protein. These are built up from 20 amino acids‚ and follow these structures o A carbon (the alpha carbon) bonded to the four groups below: o A hydrogen atom (H) o A Carboxyl group (-COOH) o An Amino group (-NH2) o A "variable" group or "R" group 2) Secondary Structure This is in reference
