Enzymes Presentation
• If enzyme is
outside its
normal pH
range, activity
decreases and at
extremes it may
also denature.
3. Substrate concentration
• The higher the
concentration, the greater
the rate of enzyme reaction
• Until all the available
enzymes are used up – this is
called the saturation point.
Examples of enzymes in the human
body
Enzyme Substrate Products of reaction
