the release of hormones‚ glucagon and adrenalin‚ to stimulate the release of fatty acids in adipocyte tissues by activating the enzyme traicyclglycerol lipase. This enzyme breaks down the triacylglycerols into fatty acids and glycerol‚ while the serum albumin transports the fatty acids through the bloodstream to deliver them to the target tissue‚ and ultimately into the muscle cells where the fatty acids can be oxidised. The process of the oxidation of fatty acids‚ β-oxidation will be discussed in depth

Abstract This experiment aimed to study the effect of various denaturants on albumin and casein protein extracts through viscosity measurements. 5 mL samples of native and denatured protein solutions were prepared‚ using -mercaptoethanol‚ urea and SDS as denaturants for albumin‚ and NaOH‚ NaCL‚ HCL‚ -mercaptoethanol‚ urea and SDS for casein. 5 mL blank solutions for each denaturant used were also prepared. The viscosity of the solutions were determined using Ostwald viscometer. ________

How well did the results compare with your prediction? My prediction was correct in this experiment. Knowing that glucose is a monosaccharide‚ it is of size to diffuse through a 200MWCO membrane. Albumin being a protein is dense with 607 amino acids and an average molecular weight of 135g/mole is not going to diffuse through the 200MWCO

How well did the results compare with your prediction. a. Between the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane‚ the results for both were that glucose was diffuse but the albumin did not. Comparing to my prediction‚ the results were a bit different. I predicted that both were able to diffuse‚ but at the

of the experiment correlated with my prediction. 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your prediction? As expected‚ glucose‚ with a molecular weight of approximately 180 g/mol‚ readily diffused across the 200 MWCO membrane; whereas‚ albumin did not diffuse across the 200 MWCO. Albumin is a protein composed of 67 amino acids and its molecular weight is significantly greater than 200 g/mol‚ accordingly

Identifying Biological Molecules with Colorimetric Chemical Tests Objectives Perform a series of accurate tests on biological molecules to detect the presence of carbohydrates and proteins‚ as well as the action of an enzyme on specific molecules. Introduction Unknown biological molecules can be correctly identified using various tests‚ including colorimetric chemical tests. Colorimetric tests are when a chemical reagent‚ such as Benedict’s‚ is used on a substance or solution and a certain
