What substrate does catalase work on?
Catalase Hydrogen peroxide -----------------> Water + Oxygen.
Would catalase act on chemicals other than hydrogen peroxide?
Catalase is an enzyme and enzymes work best with a specific substrate. The enzyme can work with any substrate just not as efficient .
Are Chryseobacterium Catalase plus or Catalase negative?
Catalase +
What two groups of bacteria can be differentiated with the catalase test?
The morphologically similar Enterococcus (catalase negative) and Staphylococcus (catalase positive) can be differentiated using the catalase test.
What enzyme distinguishes staphylococci from streptococci?
Catalase. Staphylococci are catalase positive. Streptococci are catalase negative.
What temperature does catalase work best at optimum temperature?
between 35 and 40 degrees
Why salmonella typhi is catalase positive?
it should test + for catalase but Salmonella isolates are moderate catalase reactors.
Reaction of Bacillus Megaterium in a catalase test?
Most Bacillus species are Catalase positive.
Do potato cells have catalase?
Yes, potato cells do have catalase.
Why does the catalase work the best at basic solution?
Details: Hey guys. So I conducted an catalase activity experiment at school.We measured the speed of catalase activity on the disassembling of H2O2 solution. The independent variable was pH level, and the levels were 4, 6, and 10. The internet says that the catalase works best pH 7, but ironically, the catalase worked the best at pH10 in my experiment. Now I have to write Claim-Evidence-Reasoning, but I can't think of an appropriate reasoning because the result was different from what is on the internet. Can anyone explain why the catalase worked best at pH 10?
What enzyme acts on hydrogen peroxide in living organisms?
Catalase Catalase
Where is catalase found apart from the liver?
Catalase is also found in potatoes
