|
substrates
|
the molecules which are acted upon by enzymes

controls
|
specimens or standards against which experimental samples are compared
|
|
salivary amylase
|
enzyme produced by the salivary glands and secreted in the mouth

trying to find out if starch is present in your sample, you add iodine, if the solution turns blue-black this is a ....
|
|
negative starch test
|
trying to find out if starch is present in your sample, you add iodine, if the solution stays its original color of brown this is a ....
|
|
positive sugar test
|
trying to find out if sugar is present, you add benedict's solution, the solution turns green-orange this is a...
|

|
|
enzyme assay
|
the chemical method of detecting the presence of digested substances
|
|
cellulose
|
plant sugar, humans can break down to an extent
|
|
trypsin
|
an enzyme produced by the pancreas, hydrolyzes proteins to small fragments
|
|
BAPNA
|
synthetic trypsin substrate consisting of a dye covalently bound to an amino acid. fake protein
|

|
|
glucose
|
sugar, disaccharide
|
|
peptidase
|
an enzyme that breaks down protein
|
|
pepsin
|
enzyme released by the chief cells in the stomach, breaks down protein
|
|
pancreatin
|
the enzymatic product of the pancreas, includes enzymes that digest proteins
|
|
pancreatic lipase
|
this enzyme hydrolyzes fats and oils to there component to their component monogylcerides and two fatty acids, or glycerol and 3 fatty acids
|
|
optical density
|
the measure of the amount of light absorbed by solution. This precisely measures how much BAPNA digestion occurred
|
|
bile
|
a secretory product of the liver, not an enzyme, this emulsifies fats, breaks them down. Emulsified fats provide a larger surface area for enzyme activity
|
|
deglutition (swallowing)
|
this occurs in two phases buccal (voluntary) and pharyngeal-esophageal (involuntary)
|
|
segmental movement
|
the local constrictions of the organ that occur rhythmically. Function by increasing the rate of absorption by mixing foodstuffs and digestive juices and in propulsion of food into the small intestine
|
|
peristaltic movement
|
major means of propelling food through most of the digestive vicera. Waves of contraction followed by waves of relaxation. involved more in food movement the mixing
