Glucose tolerance test

Each group labels three test tubes with SS and our group names, which ours was 5 dots, and were told to put 4ml of stock starch in each test tub with a pipette. The next step was to get each beaker of 1, 5, and 10 percent concentration of amylase and put 4ml in three other beakers labeled with their respected concentrations. After…

Theoretical framework This study is all about the comparative analysis between commercial soup containers and homemade soup container. This study is being supported by the following theories: Principles of Heat Transfer. There are three ways on how heat transfer. One is through solid material that is conduction. Two is through light that is radiation. In addition, the last is through convection. These are all according to the U.S. Department of Energy. These principles of heat transfer support…

using the following ingredients: 141g all-purpose flour, 141g adlay flour, 147g beaten eggs, 16 g lye water, 11g olive oil, 4g salt and 0.30 baking soda. The consumer acceptance tests was then performed using 100 random individuals. Consumer demographics and behavior data were collected prior to sensory preference tests. The participants gathered belong to the age group of 12-17 years old (20%), 18-24 years old (71%), 25-34 years old (6%) and 35-44 (3%). Majority of the participants were…

Describe the catabolic and anabolic fates of glucose. Provide detail of the metabolic pathways that underpin these fates and explain how their relative activity is regulated. Glycolysis - glucose catabolism. Glycolysis, part of cellular respiration, occurs in the cytosol of the cell and starts when the ATP level of the cell is low. It is the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid under aerobic conditions and to lactic acid under anaerobic conditions.…

Describe the biochemistry of the Cori cycle and the glucose–alanine cycle. How are they regulated and under what physiological conditions are they activated? The Cori cycle and glucose-alanine cycle are two mechanisms that involve cycling of nutrients between the liver and muscle. Lactate and alanine are two glucogenic molecules that are each converted to pyruvate via a series of enzymatic reactions in the liver to ultimately be converted to glucose via gluconeogenesis and transported back…

form of ATP. Not only does this process convert glucose into ATP, but it also produces ethanol and carbon dioxide. Along with a few other classmates, I performed the “alcoholic fermentation in yeast” lab to find the ideal conditions for carbon dioxide production in yeast. Organisms obtain the energy they need from food. Yeast cells use sugars, such as glucose, as a food source. However, because glucose cannot be used directly by organisms, glucose molecules have to go through the process of…

possible. Ripe fruit contains the most water, which is vital for life, and importantly, the most sugar. Sugar was a huge asset for our primate predecessors. It contains glucose, which provides more energy for a short amount of time than most other foods. For the tree-dwelling apes; a good thing. But sugar is more than just glucose.…

Although TRPM5 plays a large role in perception of the taste of food it seems to be only used to signal sweet, bitter and umami sensations it has no effect upon detecting salty or sour tastes.. Experiments have shown that cooling the tongue and taste compounds from 36 to 28 has proven that there are large decreases within the perception of the taste intensity for the sweetness and bitterness of coffee and sucrose. Studies have revealed that the temperature of a food with differ the intensity of…

the concentration, it could happen because the presence of bromelain could break down the gelatin which makes the not solidified formation of the solution. In the temperature test, the lowest temperature makes the bromelain become optimum temperature which is regarded favorable for the digestive process, and on the pH level test was determine that bromelain were effectively worked in acidic, neutral, and alkalinity condition. But the bromelain was inactive when the concentration of the bromelain…

is present. To see the effect of temperature of enzyme activity in experiment 4.3, we putted a piece of liver into the bottom of test tube #1 and #2 and added 2 ml of dh20 into both of…
