20th / September/2002 INVESTIGATING INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES: RATES OF REACTIONS OF ENZYMES Plan: I am going to use the following apparatus: 1.Test tubes 2. Protease enzyme 3. Syringes 4. Squares of photographic film with gelatine in it. 5. Splints 6. Stop watches 7. pH solutions I am going to do the following: 1. Put different pH solutions provided into different test-tube. (In this case pH 5- 9 solutions) 2. Put equal amounts in volume of protease solution into the different test tubes bearing different pH solutions in them approximately 5. 3. Using splints take the photographic films, which are smeared with gelatine and dip them into different test tubes containing the different solutions. 4. Immediately start the stopwatch and note the time at which each of the photographic films turns clear from black. 5. Draw a table and place in the results; repeat the experiment to get better results. 6. I will after record any necessary precautions. Aim: To find out the optimum pH in which the Enzyme...
