Considerations. Each chocolate-covered espresso bean contains 5 milligrams of caffeine, a stimulant that elevates your heart rate and blood pressure. Overconsumption of caffeine can lead to nausea, vomiting, tremors, restlessness and difficulty sleeping.
A pH of about 7 is the optimum and as the pH moves further away from the optimum pH the enzyme activity starts to slow down. Every enzyme shows highest activity at a specific temperature which is called the optimum temperature. The rate of reaction above or below this temperature is slower. Increasing the temperature causes the frequency of collisions to increase as the molecules move faster when the heat is supplied.
Amongst the buffers with temperature dependent pK. a values, for example, are the amine buffers, whilst carboxylic acid buffers generally react less sensitively to changes in temperature. The pH value of a Tris solution set. at a pH of 7.8 at room temperature is 8.4 at 0Â°C and 7.4 at 37Â°C.
