Carolina BioKits®: Enzymes and the Science of Cheesemaking (with perishables)

Give your students hands-on experience in the biology and chemistry of cheesemaking. Using the kit, they learn about the connection between enzymes, pH, and microbes and study their role in the cheesemaking process. Students then explore the use of microbial rennet to coagulate milk, and design and perform an experiment to study the conditions affecting coagulation. This kit supplies enough materials for 30 students working in pairs.
