Practical Assessment 2 – The effect of substrate concentration on the rate of enzyme activity of Catalase Aim To investigate the effect of substrate concentration (manipulated by increasing concentration of hydrogen peroxide) on the rate of enzyme activity of catalase‚ produced by liver cells‚ on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rates of reactions. In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction‚ the substrate binds to the active site

The substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme. Any deformation of the active site will affect the activity of the enzyme‚ these are some ways that enzyme action may be affected because of them: 1- Salt concentration: If it is close to zero or very high

was performed in order to examine ways in which a potato catalase enzyme reacts to various assays with differing variables. To do so a baseline assay (undiluted extract and room temperature H2O2) was used within the experiment with only one other variable changed in the other assays. These variables included a boiled‚ frozen and then thawed‚ and frozen potato extract and dH2O instead of the potato extract. It was noted that the temperature and or way the potato extract was prepared effects how the

depending on the temperature‚ pH and concentration. Catalase is one of the most common enzymes. It is found in living organisms and is used to break down hydrogen peroxide. This must happen because hydrogen peroxide is considered toxic to cells in the body. However‚ when catalase is used it breaks it down into hydrogen and oxygen‚ which is much safer to have in the body. A substrate is the material that is being broken down. In this case‚ the substrate would be hydrogen peroxide. The catalase‚ located

C and D. The purpose of activity C is to determine the rate at which H2O2 spontaneously decomposes when exposed to room temperatures and ambient light for 24 hours. The purpose of activity D is to determine the rate at which catalase decomposes H2O2. After adding H2SO4 for different time lashes‚ etc.‚ the resulting data will be graphed at which the catalase decomposed by catalase. Background: The four different activities to the enzyme catalyst lab have similar but different backgrounds. Activity

A hypothesis is often not necessary or appropriate. Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions in cells. They break down molecules called substrates. Each enzyme has only one substrate that it breaks down. Enzymes are produced in
