Another prac they might get u to do thats related to pepsin is this one where you have a pepsin solution in a test tube which is in hot water baths of different temperatures - 30deg, 40deg, 50deg and 60deg and you get some film and time how long it takes for the pepsin 2 dissolve the enzume in the film at different temperatures.

pepsin is the enzyme..... enzymes work on substrates not on other enzymes
