Get ready for an exciting journey into enzyme reaction rates! We will add yeast encapsulated in alginate spheres to various concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. Catalase in yeast produces oxygen gas, enabling easy observation and measurement of enzyme activity. We will use DataClassroom to profile oxidative reaction rate trends.
