Name: Date: Section: Enzymes Catechol Oxidase Scientific Report Introduction Write a single paragraph to communicate in your own words the purpose behind the first catechol oxidase experiment, to a scientific audience. State the question, your hypothesis and your prediction. Here is an example, We investigated whether…(state your question here)” or “To investigate whether…(state your question here), we hypothesized that resuit in We predicted that if then mixing would Write a second paragraph to communicate the purpose behind the second catechol oxidase experiment involving PTU starting with introducing PTU, stating the question, your hypothesis and your prediction. Procedure Describe in a single paragraph the procedure you followed to conduct your experiments for others scientists who don’t have the instruction you followed. Use the past passive tense without writing a list of instructions. For example, “5 ml of substance x were added and mixed with y ml of substance z”. In addition, specify the volumes of components you added to your experimental test and the component lacking from the control(s), as well as the final volume of the mixture. Tube numbers and experiment numbers are meaningless in a scientific report. DO NOT include any in your report writing. Refer to the tubes by their content. For example, “In the presence of X and Z… DO NOT reproduce the tables from your lab manual!!!! Here is an example describing the study of the presence of catechol oxidase in potato cells: The presence of catechol oxidase activity in potato cells was determined using 0.5 ml of potato extract and 0.5 ml of catechol. Water was used to add up the reaction mixture to a final volume of 6 ml. Two controls were included one lacking potato extract and the other lacking catechol. In both controls the volume of extract or catechol was replaced with water. The inhibition of catechol oxidase by PTU was determined using….(Complete the rest of the procedure using your own words) 45
