Resumen de Catalase activity in immobilised yeast

Kate Andrews, Paul Beaumont, Margaret Louis

• The authors, from the Scottish Schools Education Research Centre (SSERC), describe an experimental system, based on previously published work, in which the catalase activity of immobilised yeast is measured. They have adapted the protocol and developed it in a way that allows its use in investigative work to support national qualifications at both National 5 and Higher in biology in Scotland. Teacher feedback indicates that the protocol will become widely used.
