Gelatinase is an enzyme that breaks down gelatin by cleaving its protein bonds, leading to liquefaction of the gelatin. The enzyme hydrolyzes the gelatin molecules into smaller components, causing the gelatin to lose its gel-like structure and become liquid.

To solidify
To make gelatin from scratch, you can use animal bones or collagen-rich tissues. Simmer them in water for several hours, then strain the liquid and let it cool and solidify. Cut the gelatin into cubes or use it in recipes as needed.
Ice can be added in place of cold water to help the gelatin mixture congeal more rapidly. The lower temperature of the ice helps to solidify the gelatin faster.
The term "CONGEAL" likely means to thicken or solidify, as gelatin does when it cools.
The proteins in the pineapple called bromelain will break down the strands of protein in gelatin that forms jello. Hence, the effect of a fresh piece of pineapple on gelatin is able to keep the gelatin liquidfied.
Refrigerating the gelatin cultures helps to solidify the gelatin, making it easier to observe any changes in the consistency (liquefaction) of the gelatin. It also slows down any enzymatic activity that may occur at higher temperatures, allowing for a more controlled observation period.
p-aminobenzoic acid and ethanol in the presence of sulfuric acid yields benzocaine.
When ethanol is heated in the presence of concentrated H2SO4, it undergoes dehydration to form ethylene gas. This reaction follows an elimination mechanism where a water molecule is eliminated from ethanol to produce ethylene.
Gelatin is a reversible colloid, so yes, if you melt a set jello, it should set again when chilled. However, other ingredients, such as pineapple, may alter the gelatin so that it does not set.
No, ethanol is not considered a saturated compound. It is classified as an unsaturated compound due to the presence of a double bond in its chemical structure.
