Running head: EFFECT OF LOW PH ON PEROXIDASE ACTIVITY 1
Effect of Low pH on Peroxidase Activity
Name
Institution
In this experiment, the effect of pH on the activity of peroxidase enzyme was studied to
understand how different pH levels influence enzyme reactions. Based on the materials,
methods, results, and analysis provided, answer the following questions:
1. Describe how pH levels affect peroxidase enzyme activity based on the experimental
results. Include details about the pH values and their corresponding rates of reaction.
2. What is the hypothesis of the study, and how does the experimental data support or
contradict this hypothesis?
3. Discuss the potential industrial applications of peroxidase in wastewater treatment,
specifically in relation to the removal of phenols. How do environmental factors such as pH
impact the efficiency of this process?
4. Explain the importance of controlled conditions (e.g., pH and temperature) in enzyme-
catalyzed reactions. How could fluctuations in these conditions affect the outcome of industrial
processes using peroxidase?
Word Count Requirement: Your response should be between 500-600 words.
