What is Optimal pH for Pepsin Activity about?

This document summarizes an experiment that studied the effect of pH on the activity of the enzyme pepsin. Three test tubes with albumen suspension were prepared at pH 3, 7, and 8 to test pepsin activity under acidic, neutral, and basic conditions. After 20 minutes at 37°C, only the test tube at pH 3 showed clear digestion of albumen by pepsin, supporting the hypothesis that pepsin functions optimally in an acidic medium of pH 3. The results demonstrate that pH strongly affects the activity of pepsin, with
