    Joanne Kathleen Saori T. Suzuki‚ Laurent Santos‚ Val Justin D.M. Tongco* College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila Philippines Abstract Salivary amylase‚ found in humans‚ is enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into simpler compounds. Its enzymatic activity is affected by several factors‚ such as temperature and pH. The rates of enzymatic activity of salivary amylase in different temperatures and pH were measured and resulted to be very near 50 C and 7 respectively. However

    mixed with Benedict’s solution‚ is a solution that changes color from blue to reddish brown when maltose is present. Amylase breaks starch into maltose‚ so is the amylase isn’t denatured‚ it should change colors. Amylase is an enzyme. Enzymes are a type of catalyst‚ and speed up chemical reactions within the body. Amylase specifically speeds up the breaking up of starch into maltose. It takes the long polysaccharide‚ and breaks it into smaller disaccharides‚ called maltose. Maltose is faster‚ and

    starches (complex molecule) into simple sugars. That is why foods like potatoes for example‚ may taste sweet to us‚ because they contain starch. The optimum pH for pancreatic amylase is the pH of 7. In the experiment I have used buffer solutions with the pHs of 2.8‚ 4 and 6.5. I have also used iodine and starch. Normally‚ iodine is orange-yellow‚ however when you add starch to it‚ the solution will turn blue-black. Aim: The aim for this experiment is to investigate how the different buffer solutions

    Explain the physiology the cardiovascular and the digestive system in the body in relation to energy metabolism in the body. Discuss the role of energy in the body and analyse how those two body systems interrelate to perform a named functions. For distinction analyse Energy it is the ability to do work. Energy cannot be destroyed but it can be changed to another form. Without energy we would not be able to growth or move. To stay alive we need regular and permanent supply of energy or else we

    Amylase is a very important enzyme located in the saliva and pancreatic juices that hydrolyses (break down) starch and glycogen into more simple and readily digestible forms of sugar. Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rate of biological reactions. Enzymes are produced in living cells and are involved in speeding up biochemical reactions. They have an active site to which specific substrate binds. They increase the rate of reactions by decreasing the amount of activation energy meaning
