One example would be the “Biodegradable plastic bags” made from the starch of the Cassava plant (Manihot esculent). The new plastic has been able to capture the interests of buyers‚ enabling it to advocate the benefits and obvious effects one can receive from using an eco friendly product.

Amylases are enzymes that break down starch or glycogen. Amylases are produced by a variety of living organisms‚ ranging from bacteria to plants and humans. Bacteria and fungi secrete amylases to the outside of their cells to carry out extracellular digestion. When they have broken down the insoluble starch‚ the soluble end products such as (glucose or maltose) are absorbed into their cells. Amylases are classified based on how they break down starch molecules i. α-amylase (alpha-amylase)

Lab : Iodine-starch Clock Reaction Pre-lab: Before the lab was conducted‚ the concentration of the Iodate ions to be in the mixture made by dissolving specific volumes of solution A with a constant concentration and water was calculated using the dissolution formula: C1V1 = C2V2 Sample Calculation 1: Concentration of the Iodate ions: For mixture 1: C2 = C1V1/ V2 = (0.020mol/L) x (0.003L)/(0.01L) = 0.006mol/L The same calculations were used in the calculating of the

Identifying the four major classes of macromolecules through various tests. Group Members: Antonia Johnson‚ Payton Ewing‚ Lenneisha Hepburn‚ Kendisha Hanna‚ Introduction: Macromolecules also known as biological molecules are monomers which are the simple units of polymers. All macromolecules contain carbon and hydrogen which are found in organic compounds. In this Experiment we will test for the presence of protein‚ starch‚ lipids‚ and sugars by analyzing the content off food and / or other

enzyme for starch digestion‚ salivary amylase may well represent a potential compensatory alternate pathway for the digestion of amylose‚ amylopectin‚ and glycogen. Clinically significant depression of pancreatic amylase occurs in chronic pancreatitis‚ pancreatic resection‚ pancreatic neoplasm‚ cystic fibrosis‚ and other causes of pancreatic insufficiency. Quantitation of salivary amylase in these diseases has yet to be performed. It is also unclear whether the presence of starch in a meal

Abstract The researcher is conducting this experiment to find the optimum temperature and pH for starch on amylase. The experiment was carried out in one day. The researcher and a partner did the experiment based on a lab manuel from class. Data was collected from the experiment and to be displayed on graphs. Then the optimum pH and temperatures were to be calculated based on the findings. The hypothesis was disproved due to the optimum pH of 5 but the other findings supported the hypothesis of
