Most Bacillus species are Catalase positive.
No change
Oxygen is the product of the catalase reaction causes bubbling. pH is varied when testing the effect of pH on enzyme activity.
It denatures it
H2o2
Catalase is an enzyme that is substrate-specific, meaning that it has a particular reaction that it will catalyze (to speed up a reaction). Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the specific substrate reactant with which catalase will react (in a degradation reaction). This is the degradation (breaking down of) reaction. 2H2O2 yields 2H2O+O2 O2 is oxygen which is indicated by the rising of bubbles upon reaction between the hydrogen peroxide and the catalase. Sucrose is not the specific substrate assigned to the catalase enzyme, therefore they will not react together in a degradation reaction, hence the lack of oxygen release (lack of bubbles). I hope this was helpful to you. God bless and Jesus loves you.
Catalase is the endozyme that then degrades hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen

Catalase breaks down toxic hydrogen peroxide in living organisms (in both plants and animals) into water and oxygen. 2H2O2 (reaction of catalase) produces 2H2O + O2
The main criterion for differentiation between Staphylococcus and Streptococcus genera is the catalase test. Staphylococci are catalase positive whereas Streptococci are Catalase negative. Catalase is an enzyme used by bacteria to induce the reaction of reduction of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

boiling catalase denatures the enzyme making unable to function
