Chief among these is iron (Fe), which
plays a major role in cellular respiration.
Iron is a key component of cytochromes
and of ironsulfur proteins involved in
electron transport reactions .
Under anoxic conditions, iron is
generally in the ferrous form and
soluble. However, under oxic conditions,
the exact
composition of a medium is not essential. In
these instances
complex media may suffice and may even be
advantageous.
Complex media employ digests of microbial,
animal or plant products, such as casein (milk
protein), beef (beef extract), soybeans (tryptic soy
broth), yeast cells (yeast extract), or any of a
number of other highly nutritious yet impure
substances.

except that before sterilization, agar, a gelling
agent, is added to the medium, typically at a
concentration of 12%.
The agar melts during the sterilization process,
and the molten medium is then poured into sterile
glass or plastic plates and allowed to solidify
before use.
or to perform work.
There are two kinds of energy.
1. Kinetic energy is the energy of
motion.
2. Potential energy is energy that
matter possesses as a result of its
location or structure.

Enzymes
function as biological catalysts by
specificity.
The specific reactant that an enzyme acts on is
called the enzymes substrate.
A substrate fits into a region of the enzyme called
the active site.
Enzymes are specific because their active site fits
only specific substrate molecules.

cofactor.
If the cofactor is organic, then it is called a
coenzyme.
Coenzymes are relatively small molecules
compared to the protein part of the enzyme.
Many of the coenzymes are derived from vitamins.
The coenzymes make up a part of the active site,
since without the coenzyme, the enzyme will not
function.

Non-specific methods of inhibition include any

are therefore irreversible.
1.Oxidoreductases
These enzymes catalyse oxidation and

catalyse hydrogen transfer from the
dehydrogenases
catalyse hydrogen transfer from
peroxidases
catalyse oxidation of a substrate by hydrogen
peroxide.
An example of this type of enzyme is horseradish
peroxidase which catalyses the oxidation of a
number of different reducing substances (dyes,
amines, hydroquinones etc.) and the concomitant
reduction of hydrogen peroxide.
The reaction below illustrates the oxidation of
neutral ferrocene to ferricinium in the presence of
hydrogen peroxide:

oxygenases
catalyse substrate oxidation by
molecular oxygen.
The reduced product of the reaction
in this case is water and not
hydrogen peroxide.
An example of this is the oxidation of
lactate to acetate catalysed by
lactate-2-monooxygenase.
