Bio HL labs helps!

Okay, so for my Biology HL labs I'm having a bit of trouble. For my experiment, I am testing the effects of temperature on Lipase. To do this I am combining vegetable oil (because of the lipids) and Lipase in a test tube - in a water bath- and using Sudan III as my indicator.

The major obstacle I am facing currently is figuring out the proportions of substances. How much vegetable oil to use with how much Lipase?

Any helps/tips?

Thanks!

I don't think there are specific amounts you need to use. You can use for example, 25 ml of oil and 5 ml of lipase. You could do a test one, try those proportions and see if you can get some reasonable results, if the reaction is way too strong or not strong enough you can just adjust it.
