 Seminar Description:

We live in a world where there is danger from many sources- from sunlight, natural and
man-made pollutants, and from oxygen, the very element that keep us alive. We are beginning
to understand the mechanisms by which these dangers attack our skin. The skin, our largest
organ, is the first line of defense separating us from the outside world. Enzymes have recently
been of great interest to the cosmetic scientists, as they have a consumer appeal, mainly to
satisfy the ageing global population’s quest for a youthful appearance. At the heart of this
seminar is to educate the participants about the use of enzymes, specifically in the world’s
fastest growing industry, the cosmetics.

Objectives:

To engage participants on activities how enzyme works.
To apply the knowledge learned about enzymes from the classroom.

Chemistry for Grade 11 which is a core subject.
