The experiment investigates the effect of pH on enzyme activity, starting with adding iodine to a spotting tile, then mixing amylase and a pH 5 buffer solution in a water bath, adding starch, and timing starch breakdown using continuous sampling with iodine.
El experimento investiga el efecto del pH en la actividad enzimática, comenzando con la adición de yodo a una placa de detección, luego mezclando amilasa y una solución tampón de pH 5 en un baño de agua, añadiendo almidón, y cronometrando la descomposición del almidón mediante muestreo continuo con yodo.
