The Effect Of Temperature On Trypsin Enzymes

... Biology Investigation: The Effect Of Temperature On Trypsin Enzymes Plan Introduction I am going to be conducting an experiment to find out how temperature effects the rate at which trypsin hydrolyses protein found in milk.. Trypsin is secreted by the pancreas of most warm blooded animals into the small intestine. It is a biological catalyst, speeding up or slowing down the rate at which protein is broken down. I will test how quickly the trypsin works at a series of different temperatures ranging from 10 to 90scetigrade Hypothesis I predict that the optimum temperature, that I am testing, that the trypsin will work at is 40sc. This is because 40sc is nearest to the body temperature of warm blooded animals. So the trypsin will be accustomed to working at this temperature. I also predict that when I test the trypsin at 90sc it will not work at all. This is because trypsin is a living enzyme,
