The materials used in day two consisted of the Blood Agar Plate (From Previous Period), one bottle of Catalase Reagent (Hydrogen Peroxide), one Sterile Wooden Applicator Stick, The MSA Plate used in Exercise 26 and one Tube of TSB.
When beginning with day two you have to examine the blood agar plate and confirm if you have any pure colonies. You then compare your plate with other students in the lab, and then record the color of your colonies. After observing, evaluate your plate with hemolysis and record your results. You then test your unknown organism for catalase. Label the last third of the MSA Plate used in Exercise 26 Unknown. Touch an isolated colony on the blood agar plate with a sterilized, cooled loop and transfer a tiny amount

Catalase Activity on Substrate Based On Gas Pressure Production Rate Name of the Class Author’s Name Date Enzymes are organic compounds which act as catalysts and speed up biological reactions in biological organisms. They are not destroyed or changed during the reaction but rather they are used over and over again to catalyze many more reactions. Their activity may be affected and altered by factors such as temperature, substrate concentration, enzyme concentration and Ph.

The addition of the extra catechol was supposed to have sped up the reaction with the enzyme and force the inhibitor out of the enzymes active site. If there was more time allowed to observe any possible color changes the results would have been more conclusive and our results more accurate. In other

Last test, inoculation of phenylalanine agar is used to determine if phenylalanine deaminase oxidizes phenylalanine into phenylpyruvic acid and ammonia. Sixth test, is a Multiple Test Media used to determine the physiological characteristics of unknown #398. First test, Inoculation of Kligler 's Iron agar was used to determine the production of hydrogen sulfide from cysteine and fermentation of glucose and lactose. Last test, inoculation of litmus milk is used to determine the fermentation of lactose, casein, lactalbumin, and

The methods of this experiment are really simple. When we started the experiment we all washed our hands and wore gloves. Each group member did their part to conduct and successful experiment, one group member plugs the Bunsen burner to the gas pipe and turned on the gas, then used flint spark lighter to set the flame on the Bunsen burner. While the second group member is setting the dissecting microscope and making sure the lenses are clean. This member is getting all three Petri dishes ready to examine (first Petri dish contains E. coli, the second dish have the mixture of C. elegans, the third dish is where we are transferring female C. elegans to mate up).

There are few vegetables and fruits that turns to the color brown if their surface is exposed to oxygen. Once the veggies or fruits been exposed to oxygen, then the browning begins to appear, and electrons and hydrogen will be removed. This happens because of an enzyme called catechol oxidase. The enzyme will act on its substrate catechol to form a yellow compound which then reacts with the oxygen in the air and change into benzoquinone. The more concentration of the enzyme, the more browning appears.

Examine the C Elegans to insure that the C Elegans have survived at the room temperature and continue to have multiple C Elegans surviving. Once this is done prepare the dilutions of all the subjects which we are testing. Start with 1% solution for Nitrate-N 100ml and move 10ml of the first well into the next. Fill the well with 90ml dh20 to reach 100ml. move 10ml of the second well to the third well.

After the four sections were placed, the lid was placed on the petri dish, and then the dish was with tape to keep close, and wrapped in aluminum foil and placed into the correct bin to sit. After two weeks the petri dishes were ready to be observed. We used a toothpick to scrap lightly the top of the agar in the petri dishes, ensuring we were collecting from one of the dividing lines. With the spores on our toothpicks, we then smeared them onto a slide that was provided to us. We had distilled water that was lightly put on top of the smear to ensure that the cover slip would stick.

To begin, one must test for monosaccharides. Glucose is necessary, and is needed to be placed into a test tube at a quantity of 5 mL. 3 mL of Benedict’s solution is then added. The test tube is then placed in a beaker of boiling water for five minutes or until the color changes. If the color changes, then it is known that monosaccharides are present in the solution. Next, one will test for starches.

Do the same for the other test tubes. Let the test tubes not be disturbed for about 3- 4 mins. Then add the Amylase solution to the Starch solution and start the stopwatch (immediately). After every 1 min take one drop from the test tubes and place then in the test plate that were

Introduction: Plant leaves contain many enzymes, and the rate of enzyme reaction differs with the concentration of the substrate present. One of the enzymes present in any plant’s leave is catalase. Catalase is an extremely reactive enzymes that do not need cellular reductants, as they usually catalyse a dismutase reaction (Mhamdi, Queval, Chaouch, Vanderauwera, Breusegem & Noctor 2010) One may find out the rate of catalase reaction through placing different plant leaves of the same species in different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, and measuring the time taken for the leaf to flip over or counting the amount of oxygen bubbles produced in a set time. In this experiment, the rate of enzyme reaction was measured by measuring the time

SIM tube was used as well as the Triple Sugar Iron (TSI), MacConkey agar (MAC) and Citrate Slant. The SIM tube is used to identify hydrogen sulfide production, indole, which is a by-product of tryptophan which is broken down by tryptophanase and motility. The streaking technique used is a half stab. The TSI has an orange color and it used to identify carbohydrate fermentation specifically glucose, lactose, and sucrose fermentation. The TSI is used to observe the slant and butt of the tube as well as to identify if gas was present and if the organism produced hydrogen sulfide.
