4. Introduction
Allliving beings need energy to survive
It is from the food we consume that w
get our energy. We know that the ener
we are getting is by the process of
digestion that breaks down the compl
substance of starch into simpler
molecules of glucose, which are furthe
metabolized into CO2 and water thro
the process of glycolysis.The human
digestive tract starts at the mouth an
ends at the anus.

8. Aim- Tostudy thedigestion ofstarchbysalivary amylase
Theory- When Iodine solution (Yellow) is added to Starch solution, it turns blue black but
colour of iodine solution remainsunchanged for simpler sugars.When Saliva is
introduced in blue-black solutionit slowly changesto reddish brown and then toyellow
as salivary amylase
slowly breaks starch to smaller sugars.
Material required
1.1% Starch Solution 2. Saliva Solution(1:20 dilution) 3.1% NaCl Solution
4.Test-Tubes 5.Stopwatch 6.Dropper
Procedure
1.In 2
test-tubes, 5ml ofstarch solution is taken and
marked as A andB.
2.In test-tube A, 2ml ofsaliva solution is added.
3.In test-tubeB,2ml NaCl (SodiumChloride) solution is
added.
4.Both the test-tubes are mixed well and the stopwatch is o
be started atthis moment
9. With Amylase> KWithout Amylase
Test tube A - Contains Saliva(Salivary Amylase)
Test tube B - Contains NaCI Solution
10. 5.Afterl min, two drops of solution from each test-tube is taken using a dropper
and transferred to test-tubescontaining l ml of 1% iodine solution. The colour
changes, if any, is noted.
6.This step isrepeated after every 4 min and the time and intensity of blue colour
is recorded until the iodine solution retains its colour

11. 8.Similarly, transfer test tube C into the beaker set at 50
°C.
9.Drawl mlof saliva solution and add it into testtube A. Do the samefor
test tube Band C.
10.Quickly draw afew drops using a dropper from test tube A and transfer
the sameto the first series of test tubes having iodine solution
.Repeat the same: transfera few drops from testtube B and C intothe
second and third series of test tubes having iodine solutions.
12.Note the time as "0-minute reading" and wait 2minutes before
proceeding to the next step.
13.Draw a few drops from each tube and add it to the tubes with the iodine
solution.Note the change in colour.
14.Repeat the experiment in intervals of 2minutes until the colour of iodine
does not change
12. OBSERVATIONS
1.The blue colour in tube A,slowly loses its intensity.
2.At around 20 min, the saliva solution becomes in capable
of changing the colour of iodinesolution.
Result:
It takes about 20 min for lml of dil. Enzyme solution
(1:20
dilution) to digestcompletely 5ml of 1% starch
solution to the achromatic point or end point.
13. Aim :Tostudytheeffects ofvariation in temperature
and
pH levels on the activity ofsalivary amylaseon
starch.

14. Procedure
Effect of Various Temperatures
ontheactivity of
salivary amylase on starch
1.Divide and pour the 15 ml 1% starch solution +3ml 1% NaCl solution into threetest
tubes and name them as A, B and C.
2.Pour a few ice cubes ina beaker and ensure that they stay at 5°C.
3.Transfer tube- A to the beaker with ice.
4.Take two more beakers and fill them with water.
5.Heat the two beakers,one up to 37°C and the other
at 50°C.
6.Ensure that the temperatures for the two beakers are constant.
7.Transfer test tube B into the beaker which is set at 37°C.

18. pH5I5 acidik, therefore salivary amylase did not
at in these tubes
pH68 is slightly acidik, therefore salivary amylase
acted in the tube and digested the starch.
pH 8salkaline, therefore salivary
amylase did not act in these fubes.
Effect of ph on salivary amylase
19. Observation
Effect of Various Temperatures on the activity of
salivary amylase on starch:
Thetest tube at 37 °C reaches the achromatic point
quickestcompared to the other two.At high
temperatures,the enzyme gets denatured and at low
temperatures,the enzyme is deactivated. Hence, it
takesmore time for starch to be digested at
temperaturesoutside 37° C.

The salivary amylase did not react in the tubes that had
pH tables of 6 and 8.It only reacted with the tube that has
pH tablet6.8.The pH is considered acidic when it is level
