Antacids have powerful adsorbent and precipitating effect on pepsin, which can lead to its reduction
the pepsin would become innactive
the pepsin would become innactive
the pepsin would become innactive
it would contridict the acid and nothing would happen ! Anacid neutralises acid & salts get formed !
you cant poop. then your stomach will hurt
Pepsin activity would decrease and at a very low temperature pepsin would be inactive.
Pepsin activity would decrease and at a very low temperature pepsin would be inactive.
If the antacid is basic, litmus paper would turn blue. If the antacid is acidic, litmus paper would turn red.
Because Pepsin is the active form of a protein manufactured in the stomach.
Consider the stomach. The inactive form of the digestive enzyme pepsin is called pepsinogin. ( spelling may be wrong ) It takes the release of hydrochloric acid in the stomach to activate this pre-enzyme into pepsin, the active form. You would be digesting your own stomach tissue if pepsin was always active.
If it seems to work as it should I would say that all the ingredients are in alka seltzer.
Decreased incubation temperature would likely decrease pepsin activity because enzymes generally have optimal temperature ranges for activity, and lower temperatures can slow down enzyme reactions. Pepsin is a digestive enzyme that functions optimally at around body temperature (37°C), so decreasing the temperature may reduce its efficiency in breaking down proteins.
