I need some help understanding the relationship between enzyme and substrate concentration insofar as measurable enzyme activity is concerned?
What would be the results?

Generally speaking, as the substrate concentration increases so does the measurable enzyme activity. If you look through a basic biochemistry textbook you can see graphs showing reaction velocity (V) vs. substrate concentration [S]. There will be a maximum velocity for the reaction even if you keep adding more and more substrate. This maximum velocity is referred to as ...

  • Lab Practical: Factors Affecting Enzyme Activity

    Determination of the effect of substrate concentration: Urease has an optimum pH, depending on the source of the enzyme, determine this value from the graph plotted.

  • Anatomy

    It makes use of the fact that urease does not normally exist in the stomach, and therefore activity associated with the enzyme that can be localized to the stomach must come from another organism, typically H. pylori.

  • Enzyme Action

    4) How, if at all, could the effect of the presence of each type of inhibitor be overcome? 5) What effect would, if doubled, cause the rate of reaction to be doubled?

  • Helicobacter pylori

    H. pylori can be diagnosed in a number of ways, the most commonly used and most accurate method remains biopsy. The endoscopic biopsy looks for urease activity, cultures H. pylori and looks for histological signs of ulceration from the tissue.

  • Electrode Chemistry

    The activity coefficient is the ratio of the activity divided by the concentration. This is a variable factor and depends on the valency and ionic radius of the measured ion and the total ionic strength of the solution.
