The predecessors of
modern carbonated drinks were often
made at home or on a small scale.
Commercial production was encouraged
by the popularity of the temperance
movement from the 1870s through to
the early part of the 20th century.
Although some of these drinks are
still sold, many are no longer available.
The National Centre for Biotechnology
Education (NCBE) has produced the
Fizzy Pop resource as an interesting
starting point for exploring the science
of fermentation. Fizzy Pop
contains a number of recipes for making
fermented soft drinks and some suggestions
about how pupils could explore the
science involved in making them.


Serious about Science Education
Bio-Rad's Biotechnology Explorer
Programme kits have been designed
by teachers and researchers, working
together to integrate real world biotechnology
topics and activities into existing
biology curricular. A comprehensive
range of hands-on kits are available,
which are supported by a selection
of laboratory equipment and supplies.
