Robynne Shipley 10G Factors Effecting Action of Lipase Effect of Temperature on the action of Lipase Aim The aim of this experiment is to find out how the temperature effects the action of lipase. Method * A glass beaker was taken and filled with about halfway with water. * The water was then heated to 50°c * Into a boiling tube 5 cm³ of milk, 7 cm³ of sodium carbonate and a few drops of Phenothalin were placed. * The boiling tube was placed into the water for a few minutes so it could warm to the temperature of the water. * Then 1 cm³ of lipase was added and the stopwatch started. * When the reaction had finished (i.e. the milk wasn't pink anymore) the stopwatch was stopped and the time recorded. * Other groups did different temperatures and all the results were shared. Apparatus * Boiling tube * Milk * Sodium carbonate * Lipase (5% conc.) * Phenothalin * Glass beaker * Tripod * Gauze * Bunsen...
