Enzyme Lab

• Investigating Enzyme Activity

Introduction: Enzymes are Biological catalysts (usually proteins) that speed up the rates of chemical reactions that take place within cells. In this investigation, you and your group will study how temperature or pH affects the activity of enzymes.

The specific enzyme you will use is catalase, which is present in most cells and found in large concentrations in liver and blood cells. You will use liver homogenate as the source of catalase. Catalase promotes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H

2

O

2

) in the following reaction:

2 H

2

O

2

 2 H

2

O + O

2

• Hydrogen peroxide is formed as a by-product of chemical reactions in cells. It is toxic and soon would kill cells if not immediately removed or broken down.

(Hydrogen peroxide is also used as an antiseptic. It is not a good antiseptic for open wounds, however, as it is quickly broken down by the enzyme catalase, which is present in human cells.)

Enzyme Lab

Your assignment is to design an experiment which tests the affect of temperature/pH on the action of catalase.

There are pieces of equipment available in the classroom. In the course of designing the experiment decide which of the equipment/ glassware you will use and how many. Write this down.

1. State the purpose of the lab.

2. What is the experimental hypothesis ? (remember to use an “If…., then…” statement)

3. Write out in detail, and sketch out if necessary, the final procedure

(method) your group will follow to test your above hypothesis.

3. Have your procedure approved by the teacher.
