Enzyme Lab Report• Introduction

– teach about enzymes– purpose & objective of lab– no 1st person here

• Procedure– paragraph form: details of what you did

• Observation– present data: easily understood format

• Discussion– explain support/non-support of hypothesis– evaluate experimental design– discuss factors that can affect enzyme activity– sources of error

take home quiz: due Mon1. An experiment was conducted to measure the reaction rate of the human salivary enzyme α-amylase. Ten mL of a concentrated starch solution and 1.0 mL of α-amylase solution were placed in a test tube. The test tube was inverted several times to mix the solution and then incubated at 25°C. The amount of product (maltose) present was measured every 10 minutes for an hour. The results are given in the table below.

  

Time (minutes) Maltose Concentration (μM)

0 0

10 5.1

20 8.6

30 10.4

40 11.1

50 11.2

60 11.5

 (a) Graph the data on the graph paper provided and calculate the rate of the reaction for the time periods 0 to 30 minutes and 30 to 60 minutes.

 

(b) Explain why a change in the reaction rate was observed after 30 minutes.

 

(c) Draw and label another line on the graph to predict the results if the concentration of α-amylase was doubled. Explain your predicted results.

 

(d) Identify TWO environmental factors that can change the rate of an enzyme-mediated reaction. Discuss how each of those two factors would affect the reaction rate of an enzyme.
