contaminants. If exposed to contamination, one risks faulty or unreliable data, since their accuracy is dependent on a regular calibration and upkeep. To avoid this risk, and accurately measure hydrogen-ion concentration, the probes are kept in a buffer solution and calibrated before each use. [1] The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the effect of protein adsorption and thrombus formation on a pH sensor in regards to its function and accuracy. [2] Different solutions of pH were first

An enzyme is a macromolecule that acts as a catalyst, a chemical agent that speeds up a reaction without being consumed by the reaction (Coleman 2016). With different pHs and temperatures the enzyme’s rate of reaction can drastically alter. For example, peroxidase, a type of enzyme that is found in various plant tissues, was used to look into the reactions of Guaiacol + H2O2 -> Tetraguaiacol +2H2O mixed into test tubes. Following the extract of the enzyme the process of standardization was taking

wavelength at a lower value than the basic bromothymol standard solution (Table 1). These wavelength values are therefore associated with the different colors of the standard solutions. The bromothymol blue absorbance values were recorded at different pH buffers from pHs of 5.02-9.01 (Figure 2). As the pH went from 5.02-9.05, the color of the bromothymol blue went from yellow to blue. With each increase in pH, the color inside the cuvette

By solar photo catalysis using low TiO2 concentrations L. Prieto-Rodriguez et al., constructed the experimental setup to degrade the selected ECs (sulfamethoxazole, flumequine, carbamacepine, 2-hydroxybifenyl and progesterone) as per the figure 6. These laboratory-scale experiments were performed with 20 mg L−1 TiO2 at different light intensities and at 50 mg L−1 TiO2 over the normalized reaction time (t30W).

the effect of adding acid to something that doesn't have buffers in it so that the pH could be compared to the animal tissue which did. 3.How do the liver results differ from the water results? Give a reason for this difference. The liver's pH remained much more constant throughout the lab, whereas the water's pH decreased throughout. This difference is due to the fact that the liver cells have buffers and the water doesn't. The buffers within the liver cells help to maintain a steady pH although

environment for the enzyme, and pH 6 buffer solution was the optimum pH environment for the enzyme. In the other environments the enzyme did not work as fast, therefore not creating as much product. The hypothesis was that the enzyme would work the most efficiently in the most neutral environment. The data does support this hypothesis; therefore we would accept the hypothesis. The neutral state for pH is pH 7, so the enzyme would be most active at exactly pH 7. With pH 6 buffer solution, the enzyme is working

Abstract A buffer is a solution that resists changes in pH when H+, OH-, or H20 is added. By using standard lab equipment, a lab pro diagnostic tool, and acidic and basic solutions, the pH can be found. By recording the pH while adding a base or an acid gradually to a buffer solution you can find the capacity of each buffer to resist drastic changes in pH. The best buffers will keep a solution from becoming either too acidic or basic with the addition of a strong base or acid. Introduction The

The purpose of this lab was to figure out which would be a better buffer, lime juice or potato juice? We found through our observations and our data that our hypothesis that potato juice would be a better buffer was incorrect. For example in the beginning of our lime juice and potato juice trial when we mixed hydrochloric acid at zero drops the pH of the lime juice was 3.3 and after 30 drops of hydrochloric acid the pH of the lime juice was 2.6. In comparison the pH of potato juice at the beginning

The 24-hour dietary recalls were assessed with the standardized, interactive PC-guided program EPIC-Soft (11, 12). 847 participants, ≥18 years old (only these were invited for anthropometry assessment and a blood sample), completed at least two (most of them three) 24-hour recalls. The 24-hour recalls were assessed by trained study personnel in a telephone interview. The data from the recalls per person were weighted for weekday and weekend day to calculate the average daily food intake. The different

To calculate the amylase activity in the germinating barley (2g), we needed to know the amount of 0.5% starch used in the reaction tube (5mg) and the time taken to reach the achromic point, to get the average amount of starch hydrolysed / min to reach achromic point for 1mL of Diluted Amylase Extract(DAE), thus, we could get average amount of starch hydrolysed / min to reach achromic point for 25mL of DAE, which was same as the average amount of starch hydrolysed / min to reach achromic point for
