This film investigates the effect of pH on the enzyme amylase, with which students should be familiar having studied it linked with digestion.
This investigation requires high levels of organisation and working to specific, short intervals of time and can be challenging for students to manipulate. This film slows the process down, exploring each step.

This clip is from the series Explain This...

Suitable for teaching Biology and Combined Science at Key Stage 4 and GCSE in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and at National 4 and 5 in Scotland.
