Biofuel Enzyme Kit

Biofuel Enzyme Kit

Physics and chemistry underpin all areas of biotechnology. Knowledge of chemical and physical principles is essential for understanding biological systems. The Biotechnology Explorer™ Kit Curriculum Manuals, laboratory extensions, webinars, tutorials, and other materials all include opportunities to teach the relevant physics and chemistry principles. Examples of kits that focus on the role of both chemistry and physics in biotechnology are the Size Exclusion Chromatography kit and the Biofuel Enzyme kit.
