Starch Hydrolysis Of Amylase

Starch Hydrolysis Of AmylaseThe purpose of investigate is to observe amylase enzyme in contrastive environment and rule of from each one environment by helping tinct changes. Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze many different chemical reactions. With few exceptions, all enzymes are proteins and each enzyme is specific to a certain chemical reaction. Enzymes must maintain a specific three dimensional anatomical structure in order to function properly. If an enzymes structure is altered (by heat or harsh chemicals) it may not function at all. This breakdown (denaturation) of an enzymes structure may be fatalAmylase EnzymeAmylase, which is commonly plant in saliva and germinating seeds. It catalyzes the breakdown of stiffen. When amylase reacts with starch, it cuts off the disaccharide maltose (two glucose molecules linked together). As the reaction progresses, less starch will be present and more dinero (maltose) will be present.The body process of amylase can be o bserved by using iodine.Because iodine reacts with starch to form a dark brown/purpleness seeming. As amylase breaks down starch, less and less starch will be present and the color of the solution (if iodine is added) will become lighter and lighter. The color change was observed using spot-plates as illustrated on the diagram below.Amylase operation was observed under four different treatments raise of temperatureeffect of pHeffect of substrate concentrationeffect of enzyme concentrationThe Effects Of TemperatureAmylase is an important metabolic enzyme. Its function is to catalyze the hydrolysis of starch into glucose. At high temperatures, Amylase becomes denatured, denatured amylase no longish catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into glucose.EFFECT OF pHBased on these results, what is the optimal pH for amylase? Is this optimal pH considered acidic, basic/alkaline, or neutral? Why does the exertion devolve when the pH is too low or too high?APPARATUS-Starch-Amylase Enzyme-KH2 P04-Na2HP04-HCI-Heater-Beaker-Falcon tube-Spectrophotometer-IodinePROCEDURE1.0.27 g KH2P04 buffer solution PH 5 was wide-awake with 20ml2.0.27g KH2P04 PH6 was prepared with 20ml3.0.27g KH2P04 PH7 was prepared with 100ml4.0.282g Na2HPO4 PH8 was prepared with 20ml5.0.282g Na2HP04 PH9 was prepared with 20ml6.20g Starch was also prepared with 50ml cold water7. To test amylase activity with PH difference,5ml starch ,5ml buffer(PH5,6,7,8,9 is employ each) and 1ml amylase were combine each other.8.10min later,0.5ml prepared sample was piece into 5ml HCI.9.At 620nm ,the results were deliberate at spectrophotometer.10. Second part temperature effect,5ml starch ,5ml PH7 buffer and 1ml amylase were mixed.11.Prepared sample was put into different temperature 30,50,70 and 90C.12.10 min later,5ml HCI was put into 0.5 ml prepared sample.13.2-3 min later,5ml iodine was added into 0.5ml new sample14.Absorbance of each was measured at spectrophotometer.OBSERVATIONSIn this experiment,we tried to create different environment to bear witness amylase enzyme activity.The environment differences could be provided by PH differences.Therefore we prepared different medium also different pHs.K2.The graph was gained fom our results.One of them is a graph that related to amylase activity at different PH.The other one is rela ted to amylase activity at different temperatures at constant PH.With K2HPO4 PH 5.6and 7 were prepared and with Na2PO4 8and 9.Each preparation procedure was applied.5ml starch ,5ml buffer,1ml amylase were added each other and then waited 10 min.After 10min,5ml HCI was added into 0.5 ml sample mixture.In a same way,the mixture for temperature observation was prepared pH 7.And added iodine to end of procedure. Absorbance results were taken from spectrophotometry.This measurement was at 620nm.pH buffer sample with amylase0.0740.0270.0260.0430.074According to the results,The smallest one can be think as a best one.How much enzyme is utilize is more essential point. If it is less one ,it means starch can not be used adequately.High starch quantity means that composite amount is also high.The opposite one shows best activity amylase at smallest concentration.The colour is more light,smaller absorbance could be think as best amylase activity.Temperature sample with amylase0.0640.0060.1920.130At 30C the colour is slightly orange.At 50C the colour is extra light like iodine colour.At 70C the colour is slightly purple.At 90C the colour is more purple than at 30C one like orange-purple.At constant PH ,the small concentration ,at 50C.Because small absorbance formed by small complex.It means that amount of starch was decreased also.Best activity is 50C at constant PH.RESULTSOur aim is to be related to activity of amylase.To detect it, we prepared different PH from KHP04 and Na2HP04 by adding acid or base. Usage both of them is related to interval of buffer.After preparation buffer,we measure absorbance at spectrophotometry.At different PH absorbance give also different concentration.If amylase enzyme concentration with sample is small, it means enzyme is used complex is more small so activity of ezyme is best one in there.At different PHs ,smallest concentration is at PH 7.And then we did game part of experiment by using PH7.The chosen of PH7 is related to observation best amylase activity at first part.At PH7 we took sample with amylase enzyme concentration at different PHs.The smallest concentration is at 50C in second part.The concentration is 0.006.The colour is more light like iodine colour.Starch is used with amylase and therefore complex colour is more light also.The amylase enzyme activity is best one at 50C.This measurement is done at 620nm.DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONWhy is measured at 620nm ? Why HCI is used for preparation ? What does set out color mean?How does more heat affect rxn? During experiment ,we want to distinct purpose of experiment by answering these question.In this experiment,we related to effect of dif ferent buffer and temperature.We prepared buffers at different PH.KH2P04 was prepared for PH 5 ,6 ,7and Na2HP04 for 8and 9.In first part , at constant temperature (room temperature) sample with amylase concentration was measured.At PH 7,we measured the smallest one.Small concentration means less complex less starch and enzyme is used enzyme activity is high.Our result from measurement at PH 7 is 0.026.As a second part ,constant PH,temperature was changed and then observed the effect of it.At 50 C ,smallest absorbance ( 0.0060 )was found and the colour was extra light.It means more less complex there.In this experiment ,iodine is used to detect starch molecules by observing color change.Iodine and starch were combined and then formed complex.The another point is why HCI is used.The acid stops the enzymatic reaction and iodine reacts with starch to produce blue color.Activity of enzyme is also essential.It can be used for denaturation detection.Starch reacts with iodine which is yello w to form blue compound Amax=620nm.The military posture of the blue color can be quantified spectrophotometrically by measuring its absorbance at 620nm.
