    Effects of pH on the Function of Enzymes Rena Mototani Glen Rock High School Advanced Biology 2014-2015 Effects of pH on the Function of Catalase Rena Mototani Problem: How does the pH of a cell affect the function of the enzyme catalase? Introduction In this lab‚ we experimented the effects of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Catalase is an enzyme that brings about the reaction by which hydrogen peroxide is decomposed to water and oxygen (Encyclopedia Britannica). The

    Enzymes are catalysts that are used to speed up chemical reactions. Adding inorganic catalysts to reactants increase the rate of most chemical reactions. However‚ all enzymes are different and there are numerous amounts. Many enzymes are essential for life and reactions would not happen rapidly to maintain life with the help of enzymes. Specific enzymes lower the activation energy for specific reactions and shapes. Activation energy is required to start a chemical reaction. This occurs when energy

    LAB 1: What temperature does the enzyme actually work properly in? (Hypothesis) If the temperature is below 40 but above 20‚ then the liver will show bubbles. If the temperature is raised higher than the optimum temperature‚ then an extreme decline in enzyme activity would occur following by the quick denaturing of the enzyme‚ rendering it is permanently useless. Also about 37°C is body temperature. The liver that was at 25°C had a huge amount of bubbles (a 4 on the scale) and the 0°C

    Introduction This practical experiment was performed in an attempt to observe how enzymes (starch phosphorylase in particular) are affected by varying its temperature before introducing it to the substrate it will be reacting with. A catalyst (enzyme) is a substance that changes the rate of a reaction; for a reaction to take place at all‚ the enzyme must first come into contact with the substrate. Enzymes are subject to a number of factors which effect how fast they can cause a reaction with a substrate;

    that certain environmental factors affect the enzyme activity rate. For the first experiment‚ where we tested the increase in concentration of enzyme with the substrate‚ we found that higher concentration of enzyme increases the rate of reaction of the enzyme. This is because more enzyme molecules are present‚ which allow more substrate molecules to get into the active sites of the enzyme (Sattler W& Esterbauer H). When calculating the absorbance of different enzyme concentration‚ it was noticeable

    scale Enzyme applications 1. Detergents Bacterial proteinases are still the most important detergent enzymes. Lipases decompose fats into more water-soluble compounds. Amylases are used in detergents to remove starch based stains. 2. Starch hydrolysis and fructose production The use of starch degrading enzymes was the first large scale application of microbial enzymes in food industry. Mainly two enzymes carry out conversion of starch to glucose: alpha-amylase and fungal enzymes. Fructose

    Cellular Biology furthers technology-Enzymes in the Dairy Industry Since ancient times‚ enzymes have played an important role in food production. Especially in the diary industry‚ some enzymes are required for the production of cheese‚ yogurt‚ and other dairy products‚ while others are used in a more specialized fashion such as improving texture or flavour of the product. Enzymes are used to catalyze the desirable reactions in industrial processes. Today‚ enzyme applications in such processing get

    Abstract: Enzymes are part of human’s everyday lives and improve the quality of living. Enzymes decrease activation energy which pertains to how much energy is needed for chemical reactions to take place. Enzymes also known as catalysts is one of the main factors in producing energy in individual’s bodies. The experiment conducted was to test how different temperatures effected the catabolizing of fungal and bacterial amylase‚ as well as the optimal temperature needed for the enzyme to correlate

    Does the PH level of acids in our stomach affect the digestion proteins? Yes‚ if the acidity in my/a stomach is high in terms of the PH balance then the proteins in our stomach will be digested faster because acids are known to breakdown and eat away at many objects. The purpose of this project was to observe how the digestion of protein varies at different pH levels. This project in my eyes helps society by finding the best types of food (i.e. ones with higher/ lower acidity and pH balance)
