Enzymes in action

Abstract

Enzymes in Action is the first in a series of school resources produced by Lincoln University. It aims to bring new ideas, based on the teaching and research of the university, into the senior high school. The resource itself is a collection of ideas contributed by several of the university staff. Their knowledge and understanding of enzymes is based on their research into practical solutions in animal biology, human physiology and in the winemaking industry. The practical experiments have been trialled by a score of teachers, whose feedback and suggestions have been invaluable in honing them for the classroom.
