Lactose Intolerance Reports Samples For Students

Abstract

Three distinct variables were theorized and examined in the parameters on the outcome of the productivity of the lactase enzyme. The assessment of the temperature, substrate composition and the pH were reviewed in this experiment. The pH values were recorded over time. The effect of the pH on the lactase production in addition to the qualities of the substrate identity and the temperature were documented. In consideration of the findings of the experiment, it was discovered that a pH between 5 - 7 is the most suitable pH for the production of lactase. In this lab report, the works of ...

Introduction

During manufacture of food products, manufacturers must put different factors into consideration. The health of consumers becomes a paramount factor of consideration during food manufacturing processes .Consumers present a very sensitive and complex group. People have different medical conditions and as such, manufacturers have to put this into consideration. One common health condition that has been on the rise among consumers is diabetes .Diabetes is caused by foods with high glucose levels. Therefore, this is an aspect that food manufacturers have devised techniques to deal with during food preparation, storage and packaging. Foods with high glucose levels pose a health challenge to ...

Factors Affecting Enzyme Activity: Lactose Intolerance

Purpose/Hypothesis
Lactose is the primary carbohydrate in milk and is commonly known as milk sugar. Lactose comprises of almost 8% of human milk and almost 4% of cow’s milk. Lactose intolerance is a condition in human beings where they lack enzyme lactase since they have trouble in absorbing and digesting lactose. The goal of this experiment is to-:
- Learn how substrate concentration, pH and enzyme concentration can affect the enzyme activity in human body.

Data Variable (Procedures)

In this experiments, o-nitrophenyl-β-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG) would be used as a substitute to lactose since it is similar in shape and size and ...
