    Property of Starch The experiment obtained Starch to have a bulk density of 0.48g/ml‚ i.e. 0.48g of Starch occupies 1ml of water. This value represented the density of starch incorporating the voids. The tapped density was found to be 0.60g/ml. This value represented the density of starch excluding the voids and intra- particle pores greater than molecular and atomic dimensions in the crystal lattice. This simple means‚ by reducing the number of intermolecular spaces between the starch particles‚

    fungus amylase and also discovers the optimum temperature for these enzymes. The amylase was mixed with starch at temperatures of 0℃‚ 37℃‚ 57℃‚ and 90℃. Iodine was added to each mixture and colour changes in each case. Bacteria amylase was found to be effective at 55 0C as the temperature dropped drastically from 4.58℃ to 2.33℃. This shows that the amylase catabolized a lot of starch hence little is left which cannot turn the iodine solution to blue-black which indicates the presence of starch. Fungal

    Correlation between the chemical activity of Amylase and change in temperature ABSTRACT This experiment focuses on how the change of temperature affects the rate of reaction of amylase. In the experiment there were four different environments that each contained 2 test tubes. Each test tube consisted of the same concentration and amount of starch and amylase. After having each test tube placed in these environments for several minutes a droplets of each mixture was placed onto each slot which

    This study focuses on the effect that temperature has on the enzyme amylase. Enzymes are composed of proteins and acts as a catalyst to speed up the rate of a specific chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy. Reactions do not need enzymes to occur‚ but the human body and other living organisms depend on the use of enzymes in order for biochemical reactions to happen in milliseconds. Each enzyme contains a distinct three dimensional structure which is related to its particular function

    Human Digestion SCI/241 Human Digestion The beginning of the digestive process starts with the smell and sight of food which activate the salivary glands. The mouth is the point at which food enters the digestive tract and continues the digestive process by chewing food. The food is then broken down into pieces and moistened by salivary glands which turn food into a bolus. The bolus goes down the pharynx into the esophagus which connects the pharynx to the stomach. The stomach is an organ
