Very
good evening to our Principal Dr Sr Shyji, Vice principal, Sr Hema, chief guest
for today’s Program, Mrs Jayshree Bhutoria mam, Member of Bioenzymes
Enterprises and Bioenzyme Council. Heads
of the departments, Faculties and participants, a very good evening to one and all.
The
Department of Biochemistry has always been active in creating awareness among
the public and students on important days like that of today and spread the
word which is required for the day. So today we are here to observe National
Science Day, which is celebrated marking the Discovery of Raman Effect by our
Indian Physicist, Sri C.V Raman. He won Noble prize for the same in the year
1930. The first National Science Day was observed in 1986, as Government of
India was asked by the National Council for Science and Technology
Communication to observe this Day. Since then every Indian school or
organization is being asked to observe the day and a theme is given for the
same.
The
National Science Day-2023 theme is 'Global Science for Global Wellbeing'
emphasizing the importance of scientific research and innovation in addressing
global challenges and promoting human wellbeing. In this era, Bioenzymes which
are natural cleaners produced by fermentation of natural materials can
contribute a lot towards Sustainable living and Safe environment.
We all are
aware that Science is a way of understanding ourselves and as we all appreciate the new underlying principles and
applications of the simplest thing of science, then we all can be
contributors for Global WELLBEING.

Bioenzymes
are eco-friendly, user-friendly, pocket friendly multi-purpose natural
cleaners. These can be made from natural elements by fermentation fruit peels
and vegetable peels etc.
The
enzymes released by breakdown the organic wastes and convert them into carbon dioxide and water.
These microbial bioenzymes are easy to be used for washing clothes or bathroom
washers. They can penetrate even the crevices and clean the dirt. They can hydrolyze
lipids from stains.
Making of
bioenzymes- take a closed container, preferably a container that can be sealed.
Take 10 parts water and mix it with 1 part jaggery. Then add 3 parts of citrus
peels. You can add any type of peels but keep the proportion same. Leave it for
3 weeks and if we observe the bottle it will show 3 layers. Upper thin layer
which is the source for bioenzyme, middle hazy layer and the bottom thick pulpy
layer. The upper layer can be diluted 10 times and used as bioenzyme.
Several
recipies were discussed as bioenzymes have wide range of applications. Like
usage in hair shampoo, bathroom cleaners, scalp cleaner etc. The lecture was
very interactive.
The
lecture was very interactive and many students asked quiries. A students who is
working on a project on bioenzymes shared her views and difficulties which the
guest speaker cleared.
Mam has
demonstrated the bioenzymes that she prepared at home and she herself at home
has 33 liters of ready to use bioenzymes which she uses to clear river water.
The
session closed with feedback from students and national anthem
