Identification of Macromolecules Introduction The purpose of this lab is to test for the presence of macromolecules in various foods. Tests are performed to describe the basic structure of proteins‚ lipids‚ glycerides‚ and carbohydrates. We are to recognize the positives and negatives in these macromolecules. Also we are to identify the roles that proteins‚ lipids‚ minerals‚ vitamins‚ and carbohydrates play in the body’s construction and metabolism. Procedure / Results 5.1 Carbohydrate

SCIE211 Phase 2 Lab Report Title: Speciation Instructions: You will need to write a 1-page lab report using the scientific method to answer the following question: • What would happen if a species within a population were suddenly split into 2 groups by an earthquake that creates a physical barrier like a canyon? When your lab report is complete‚ post it in Submitted Assignment files. Part I: Use the animated time progression of speciation to help you write up your lab report. Part II: Write

Objective: The objective of the lab is to separate the caffeine samples we are using‚ using thin layer chromatography. The solvent we are using for the separation is 3:1 mixture of Chloroform and Acetone. Principle: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is an important technique that is useful for separating organic compounds. TLC is often used to monitor the progress of organic reactions and to check the purity of products. Separations in Thin layer chromatography involve distributing a mixture of

The purpose of this lab was to determine the effects of changes in variables such as temperature‚ pH and concentration on catalase enzyme activity. Proteins are organic compounds made up of amino acid subunits consisting of carboxyl and amino functional groups‚ linked together by peptide bonds through condensation reactions. They are an essential part of all living organisms. Enzymes are “biological catalyst used to speed up chemical reactions (Athanasopoulos‚ 2014). Normally‚ for chemical reactions;

Separating Substances: Identifying Food Dyes with TLC Background The color of food is an integral part of our culture and enjoyment of life. Who would deny the mouth-watering appeal of a deep-pink strawberry ice cream on a hot summer’s day or a golden Thanksgiving turkey garnished with fresh green parsley? Even early civilizations such as the Romans recognized that people "eat with their eyes" as well as their palates. Saffron and other spices were often used to provide a rich yellow color

Enzymes are biological catalysts or assistants that consist of various types of proteins that work to drive the chemical reaction required for a specific action or nutrient. They can either 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

Title: Determining which organic molecules are present in a series of unknown dietary supplements ● Introduction: Our main objective was to find out if the dietary supplements that claimed to be providing high levels of proteins contained fillers such as starch and sugar. We developed and carried out tests to determine which organic molecules were present in a series of unknown supplements. This is important because it is important to know what is in the food you eat for yourself and not always reply

Physics Lab Report Format General Remarks: Writing a lab report is the only way your TA will know what you have done during the lab and how well you have understood the process and the results. Part of your lab experience should be learning how to organize and present your work in a scientific way. There is no framework that can be used as a “one size fits all”‚ therefore this sample lab report should only be used as an example. Any lab report should have the following features:
