enzyme; this is where the magic happens. Substrate is what is being broken apart by the enzyme. In this case‚ the enzyme is catalase and the substrate is hydrogen peroxide‚ or 2H2O2. As the catalase and the substrate interact‚ the substrate is brought into the catalase and broken apart into water and oxygen. This process may be able to happen naturally‚ but the enzyme‚ catalase‚ speeds up the process.

graph shows that the highest rate of reaction is at pH 7. This therefore supports my theory that at pH 7 the rate of reaction will be highest. This relate to other resources‚ such as books and the internet‚ which show that the optimum pH value for catalase is pH7‚ therefore there is no difference between the optimum pH and the pH used in the experiment‚ hence the enzyme structure is not affected by the pH and is most active. However the graph inadequately supports the second part of the prediction

launch a reaction or speed it up. Catalase is a common enzyme found in nearly all living organisms exposed to oxygen. It is a very important enzyme in protecting the cell from oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS). The catalase used in this experiment will come from five different sources: Spinacia oleracea (Spinach)‚ Brassica oleracea (Broccoli)‚ Solanum tuberosum (Russet Potato)‚ Malus domestica (Apple)‚ and Allium cepa (Onion). The five different catalases from the sources will all be used

affects the time catalase takes for it to break down peroxide. The problem that i was investigating is how does temperature affect the time it takes for catalase to break down peroxide. My independent variable for this lab was the temperature of the solution the enzyme is in. My dependent variable in this experiment was rate of reaction or the amount of time it takes to sink and rise. My hypothesis is that if the temperature is higher than 37℃‚ then it will break down the peroxide faster because yeast

An investigation to see how much oxygen is given off when different concentrations of catalase are added with hydrogen peroxide. Aim: To see if changing the concentration of catalase (found in celery) with hydrogen peroxide affects the amount of oxygen given of. Background Information: (Hydrogen peroxide - H2O2 1/2O2+H2O) Enzymes: Hundreds of chemical reactions happen simultaneously inside living cells and it’s the job of enzymes to control and regulate the various metabolic

decreasing the energy of activation. The main function of enzyme catalase is to convert hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in our bodies into oxygen and water. This can be visually seen when hydrogen peroxide is put on a wound and the peroxide bubbles. Enzymes can also be found in plant cells and fungi. (Huston.) In this experiment we test the many variables that can change the rate of this reaction such as temperature‚ concentration levels of enzyme catalase and pH values. We are able to track these changes using

the bacterium was a gram negative or a gram positive. After performing the gram stain‚ I concluded that by the appearance of purple spherical clusters resembling grapes that is was a gram positive cocci. A Catalase test was then performed using hydrogen peroxide. A positive catalase test was observed when bubbles started to form on the culture distinguishing Staphylococcus spp. form on the culture distinguishing Staphylococcus spp. from Streptococcus spp. Finally‚ a Mannitol Salt Agar

The Catalase Lab Stephen Human Anatomy & Physiology 9/30/12 Problem- How do different environments affect the reactivity of catalase? Hypothesis- If more catalase is added then more oxygen (kPa) will be produced in a faster rate because there is more catalase to react upon. If less catalase is added then less oxygen (kPa) will be produced in a slower rate because there is less catalase to react upon.
