The Speed of a Bubble Set connects the mathematical concept of slope to the physical science concept of velocity.

This is an excellent and economical set for introductory ray optics.

Primary and Secondary Coils are used to investigate electromagnetic induction.

How does the immune response protect against diseases caused by bacteria?

What Is Causing An Outbreak Of Food Borne Illness In A Community?

Create A Model To Illustrate Cell Communication.

How Does Genetic Engineering Produce Human Growth Hormone?

What Factors Affect Blood Alcohol Concentration?

Does Mike have meningitis?

Model Neuron Pathways.

Make A Model Placenta To Investigate Effects Of Prenatal Exposures.

Students use taste papers to determine if they are PTC tasters.

In this colorful experiment, students will explore the biological process of bacterial transformation using vibrant chromogenic proteins.

Over 380 million people worldwide are afflicted by diabetes mellitus, a chronic disease that leads to high blood sugar. Due to genetic predisposition and high-calorie, low-activity lifestyles, that number continues to grow. Without early detection and treatment of diabetes, severe medical complications can occur. In this simulation, students will diagnose diabetes in three patients using the urine glucose test and Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

For centuries, humans have used selective breeding and conventional hybridization to produce desirable qualities and to increase crop yields. Today, scientists use genetic engineering to directly manipulate the DNA, quickly producing these desirable traits. In this experiment, students will use agarose gel electrophoresis to explore the molecular methods used by scientists to identify genetically modified organisms. No thermal cycler is required. Students are also encouraged to explore the controversy surrounding the use of genetically modified organisms.

The 3D Magnet Viewer displays clear views of magnetic fields.
