Effect of different size beads on the activity of immobilised catalyse Aim: To find out how varying the size of beads containing yeast varies the rate of activity of catalase in a fermentation reaction of hydrogen peroxide with immobilised enzymes. A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction, without itself being used up in the process however it maybe affected physically i.e. degradation of the surface of the catalyst.

The rate of reaction on excess hydrogen peroxide solution was investigated under different yeast concentrations: 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75 and 80 beads. The experiment
