Quick Answer:The Enzyme Biotechnology Kit introduces students to how industry uses enzymes, through experiments on rennet in cheese making, protease in meat tenderisers, enzymes in washing powders and pectinase in fruit juice production.
Last updated: 18 October 2026
Key Features
Rennet in cheese production.
Protease in meat tenderisers.
Enzymes in washing powders.
Demonstration of pectinase in fruit juice production.
How It Is Used
Each experiment links an enzyme to a real industrial use, giving students an insight into enzyme biotechnology, where enzymes secreted in large quantities by micro-organisms have largely replaced traditional sources. The class works through the cheese, meat tenderiser, washing powder and fruit juice activities in turn.
