FROM YEAST AND EFFECT OF pH ON ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY Jenelle C. Faustino‚ John Gambit B. Garcia‚ Fatima S. Jusay‚ Oliver Alexander B. Lao and Eunice L. Licudine Group 4 2 E Medical Technology Biochemistry Laboratory ABSTRACT Enzymes are substances that are produced by living organisms and act as catalysts in order to speed up or chance a chemical reaction without changing itself at the end of the reaction. Invertase was extracted first from baker’s yeast. Determination of the effects of

Temperature Rising Global Warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air‚ landmasses‚ and oceans its projected prolongation. Many believe that the Earth is currently facing warming in the ozone layer brought on by the rising levels of trapped gases known as the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. Global warming is‚ in Laymen’s terms‚ altering the balance in energy of the earth (Reid 27). “The topic of climatic change has been in question

I was testing different temperatures and how it affects the time catalase takes for it to break down peroxide. The problem that i was investigating is how does temperature affect the time it takes for catalase to break down peroxide. My independent variable for this lab was the temperature of the solution the enzyme is in. My dependent variable in this experiment was rate of reaction or the amount of time it takes to sink and rise. My hypothesis is that if the temperature is higher than 37℃‚ then

The effects of gelatin on the process of Fermentation How does gelatin affect the process of fermentation? The experimenters hypothesized that the more gelatin that was added into the mixtures of yeast and water‚ the more the mixtures will ferment. The experimenter’s hypothesis was not determined correct or incorrect due to the inconclusive results of the experiment. Throughout the experiment‚ none of the balloons grew from fermentation. The results of the labs were meant to measure the CO₂ released

Name of Student: Bal Krishna Maharjan Course: Food Microbiology 17/FA Describe how to isolate and differentiate between molds and yeasts? Answer: Isolation of molds: Isolation of molds can be done in two ways: 1. Direct isolation: Under this different methods can be selected depending upon the nature of molds and need of study. The following are the different direct isolation techniques. a. Direct transfer: Involves simple transfer of a mold from its source to a pure culture‚ usually consists of

Introduction Yeasts are a Leading cause of spoilage of yogurt‚ doogh and fermented milks in which the low pH provides a selective environment for their growth (Fleet‚ 1990; Rohm‚ Eliskasses‚ & Bräuer‚ 1992; Hansen and Jakobsen‚ 2004). Yogurts and doogh having initial counts of >100 CFU/g tend to spoil quickly. Yeasty and fermented off-flavors and Swelling of the doogh and yoghurt package are often detected when yeasts grow to 105–106 CFU/g (Fleet‚ 1990). Green and Ibe (1986)‚ Viljoen et al (2003)

value(x) read from cuvette containing starch and water represents the total amount of starch-iodine complex. The absorbance value(y) read from cuvette containing starch‚ water and α-amylase at the respective temperature or pH represents the amount of starch-iodine complex which is left after the enzyme has hydrolyzed the starch.In order to get the amount of product;P (maltose and glucose) formed‚ need to subtract the (y) value from the (x) value.

Cellular Respiration in Yeast Lab Report Form Your Name: “What do you think? – What do you know?” Questions: In this lab‚ we will investigate the effect of sucrose concentration on the rate of cellular respiration in yeast. Under specific conditions‚ yeast will convert sucrose into glucose and then use this glucose in cellular respiration. 1. Yeasts have been used by humans in the development of civilization for millennia. What is yeast? How have humans used yeasts? They are most common
