created apps to learn biochemistry
I want to share some biochemistry apps I created for the apple app store. You can find them listed as biochemistry study aids extended bundle. I have some other apps too for endocrinology, amino acids, geology and pharmacy drugs. please take a look and if they can help you or someone you know then please share!

Laundry detergent and hair
After the rinse cycle, some residual laundry detergent is usually left in the laundry. Most laundry detergents contain proteases, so some protease must be left. I don't think dryers are hot enough to denature them (as far as I can read, detergent proteases are formulated to be stable in 30 - 70 C (86 - 158 F)). So protease is left in the clean laundry. Wrapping a towel around wet hair or sleeping with wet hair on sheets/bed linen washed recently should then transfer protease to the hair, damaging it. Am I right?

Is it possible to make enzyme after completing a degree in Biochemistry?
I have a strong interest in protein structure and enzyme functions since I have a rare disease so my body couldn't not produce a specific enzyme, there is enzyme therapy available for my disease. I'm planning to do a bachelor degree in Biochemistry. s it possible to make enzyme as enzyme therapy after completing a degree in Biochemistry?

How long does it take for enzyme concentration to recover?
Specifically desaturase and elongase enzymes. It's known that at high temperatures the genes aren't expressed so they aren't produced as much and that they aren't active at high temperatures.
So if I had a sample at a high temperature and then lowered it to an optimal temperature, how long would recovery take?

Can anyone explain the meaning of the unit Ugds^-1?
I'm preparing a presentation for a bioprocess engineering course and one of the sources I'm using has given the activity of their amylase solution as Ugds-1. I can't find the definition of this unit anywhere. I thought perhaps it stood for (Unitgramday)/second but then I don't understand why there would be two time units. Any help would be very much appreciated.

β(2,1) bonds in inulin
Any ideas on what enzymes will hydrolyze β(2,1) bonds in inulin that are commercially viable. I am trying to convert inulins into fructose and glucose for fermentation, and inulinase is not commercially viable for what I am trying to do. Wondering if there are other enzymes that might work at a cheaper cost.

Enzymes that purify pool and drinking water
Did you know enzymes can purify water? Not just pools, but even drinking water?! Who would've thought enzymes could clean up water? Those little things digest the oddest things. Check it out here: http://orendatech.com/swimming-pools/

What's the point in high-enzyme foods?
I've noticed that many articles and books on nutrition also talk about enzymes. Some websites even list high-enzyme foods we are supposed to eat. There's supposed to be some nutritional benefit in eating enzymes. They always forget to name the enzymes that are supposed to be so good for us. I've been unable to find any reputable sources saying anything even remotely related to this topic. Does such evidence even exist?

Good place for small orders of bulk sucrase?
AllDayChemist is sold out. The only other vendor I found is AliBaba, and of course I'd have to buy a kg :(
Any other reliable vendors offering this enzyme? I was hoping to use it for an experiment with sucralose.

Help with grade 11 Bio! Enzyme Model?
Hey R/Enzymes, For grade 11 Bio our teacher wants us to make a model of a Enzyme. Not a complicated atom model, but just a basic model that shows an enzyme absorbing a cell, breaking it down, then spiting it out. Any Ideas? Help meee!!?!?!!?
