What temperature does amylase work best at?

Amylase works best at body temperature, which is around 37 degrees Celsius. This is because if the temperatre is too low, the amylase will collide slow as the kinetic energy will be low. It reacts fastest and best in this temperatue as lota of kinetic energy is given to the molecules and the particles therefore collide faster. Although, when the temperature is too high, the enzymes (amylase) gets denatured which means that they loose their shape. This way they do not react.


Does temperature affect amylase activity?

yes it does


What are the differences between fungal amylase and bacterial amylase?

Enzymes from an organism are generally going to work best around the conditions that the organism tends to live. Fungi usually live in quite cool areas (think woodland) and in acidic soils. Bacteria can live anywhere generally and their optimum conditions could be anything.


What happens to amylase at room temperature?

Nothing special.


How will the time taken for starch to digested in amylase be affected by the temperature?

investigate the relationship between reaction temperature and the effectiveness of the Enzyme amalayse on starch


At what temperature does fungal amylase stop working?

Two degrees.


What is the optimum temperature of bacteria amylase?

38 deg C


What is the opitmal pH for salivary amylase?

identify two pH values at which salivary amylase activity stop?


Which temperature 20 C or 40 C is Better temperature for saliva to act on starch?

The enzyme that acts on starch is Amylase, and conveniently this is found in the saliva. By looking at Amylase efficiency curves, it becomes clear that amylase works more efficiently at 40 C. Therefore, the answer is 40 C.


State one other factor apart from temperature that will affect the rate of reaction of amylase?

pH and temperature


What is the rate of unboiled amylase activity at 35 degrees Celsius?

water temperature


Does acid and base pH value has salivary amylase stops?

Yes,amylase work best in neutralized medium.
