    precipitate. Starch give positive result in Iodine test as the colour of solution change from yellow to dark blue. Glucose is the simplest carbohydrates that are monosaccharide or simple sugar. Starch consisting of a large number of glucose units joined together by glycosidic linkage and known as polysaccharide‚ that is polymers of sugar. Saliva that contains salivary amylase enzyme‚ which breaks down the glycosidic linkage between glucose that found in starch and hydrolyzes starch into glucose

    Hydrolysis Report Bile Esculin Hydrolysis‚ Starch Hydrolysis‚ UreaHydrolysis‚ Casein Hydrolysis Hydrolysis Report Introduction Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that uses water to split complex molecules. The water molecule H2O is split in the mechanism of hydrolysis‚ hydrogen cations and hydroxide anions. When the enzyme catalyzes its reaction inside the cell‚ it is referred to as intracellular hydrolases. When the enzymes secreted from the organism to catalyze reactions outside the cell‚ it

    Carbohydrate Digestion The following questions refer to Activity 1: Assessing Starch Digestion by Salivary Amylase. 1. At what pH did you see the highest activity of salivary amylase? Why? 7.0 because that is when the salivary is most effective and it breaks down carbohydrates. 2. How do you know that the amylase did not have any contaminating maltose? We used a negative control to see if there is any amylase in the maltose. 3. What effect did boiling

    Experiment 4 – Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim To study the effects of temperature on the activity of amylase enzyme on starch solution. Introduction Enzymes are widely known as biological catalyst. Almost all cellular reactions are controlled and guarded by enzymes. Virtually every metabolic reaction which takes place within a living organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Enzymes are complex three-dimensional globular proteins. Some of the enzymes are built up off proteins and

    Amylase is found in saliva and breaks starch into maltose and dextrin. This form of amylase is also called "ptyalin" /ˈtaɪəlɪn/[4] It will break large‚ insoluble starch molecules into soluble starches (amylodextrin‚ erythrodextrin‚ and achrodextrin) producing successively smaller starches and ultimately maltose. Ptyalin acts on linear α(1‚4) glycosidic linkages‚ but compound hydrolysis requires an enzyme that acts on branched products. Salivary amylase is inactivated in the stomach by gastric acid

    substances water and oxygen. The goal of this lab is to measure the reaction rate of this process in different substances such as a liver‚ a vegetable‚ and breast tissue. By using variables such a pH and temperature we are able to how the rate of reaction is altered or improved. If it has improved‚ the optimum has been discovered and the enzyme will create a higher reaction rate. If above the optimal points‚ proteins will denature and the reaction rate will remain the same. This is vital for cellular

    Enzymes are globular proteins that are synthesized by the ribosomes in a cell. They act as catalysts during biological reactions; therefore‚ enzymes are able to speed up these reactions without undergoing a permanent change themselves. These proteins are able to do this by lowering the activation energy of a reaction. To add on‚ enzymes require specific conditions under which they can work best. Reactions occur at faster rates when the temperature is higher. However‚ the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed

    Treating starch How is starch and cellulose treated to allow them to be used by the yeast? (1)Starch is a complex carbohydrate that is insoluble in water. It is supplied by traditional staple foods such as cereals‚ roots and tubers. Starch is used in cooking for thickening foods such as sauce. In industry‚ it is used in the manufacturing of paper‚ textiles and as a mould in the manufacture of sweets such as wine gums and jelly beans. Fermentation (2)As with any food preparation‚ there are
