    salivary amylase? Dependent variable: activity rate Independent variable: pH Hypothesis: This is a paragraph or two where you explain your research question. You are going to say something like: "Salivary Amylase is a an enzyme that digests starch into di- and monosaccharides. Since it’s a salivary amylase‚ the enzyme works best at an alkaline pH of 7‚ in other words‚ the optimum pH is 7. At this pH‚ the rate of amylase activity will be at it’s highest. A pH that is much lower (very acidic)

    The proteins in groundnut are well balanced‚ except for slight deficiency in some of the essential amino acids. As it happens‚ these amino acids are‚ abundant in milk which can be combined with groundnut products for better results. For proper digestion‚ groundnut requires thorough mastica­tion. Experiments made with the groundnut show that it is quite indigestible unless chewed to a smooth paste. This difficulty is obviated by roasting them. The baked raw

    There will be four or five groups‚ and each group will be given a concentration of glucose ranging from 5%‚ 10%‚ 20%‚ and 40%. 6 dialysis tubes will be given that will be used to simulate a cell’s membrane as well as 6 beakers that will be filled to 200 ml with distilled water. The 4 different percentages of glucose‚ the control which is distilled water‚ and an unknown substance will all be inserted into the dialysis tubing. Before inserting the substances‚ one must take the dialysis tubing and clamp

    The sugarcane undergoing fermentation produced a volume of carbon dioxide that was nearly nine times more than the corn‚ wheat grain and wheat stalk. Wheat grain and corn was nearly doubled that of the wheat stalk and the control (Figure 1). Sugarcane was the leading plant material producing the highest volume of carbon dioxide (mean= 19.9 ± 0.996 mL) while other than the control; the wheat stalk produced the lowest volume of carbon dioxide (mean= 1.33 ± 0.036 mL). As time elapsed‚ the sugarcane

    to three times as much carbohydrate for fuel ethanol production (Comis‚ 2008). Ethanol production from fresh cassava roots using a low-temperature process was evaluated on a pilot-plant scale. The application of low-temperature cooking to cassava starch followed by a dual enzyme action resulted in an ethanol yield comparable to that of a traditional high-temperature cooking process. Pressurized distillation gave a satisfactory recovery efficiency of ethanol but was slightly lower than that obtained

    Longstreth‚ 2011) Factors Affecting Amylase: Things that affect the efficiency of Amylase are temperature and pH levels. (Wikimedia Foundation‚ Inc‚ 2013) Function in the body: The function of Amylase in the human body is to break down plant-based starch sources. Therefore‚ providing the human body with more sources of energy. Animals such as chimpanzees do not secrete Amylase and therefore their diet consists of fruits and meats.

During fermentation of starchstarch is first hydrolysed to maltose by the action of enzyme diastase. The enzyme diastase isrom gery seeds. Fermentation is carried out at a temperature of 4–16 °C (40–60 °F). This is low for most kinds of fermentation‚ but is benjuices with cranberry
