Enzymes are a core biological function that can be applied across several disciplines and taught at a variety of levels. Reveal the power of enzyme kinetics by illustrating the theory through the real-world application of biofuel production.
Biofuel Enzyme Reactions Kit for AP Biology |
Biofuel Enzyme Kit |
|
Overview |
Focus on student-driven questions and problem solving while teaching students about enzymes and their role in Ecology as a bioengineer. Investigate how to optimize the efficiency of cellobiase and explore solutions to real-world energy issues. |
Reveal the power of enzyme kinetics by illustrating the theory through the real-world application of biofuel production. The biofuel enzyme kit tests the ability of an enzyme to increase the rate of conversion of a clear substrate to a colored product. |
