"agarose tablets"

These bundles are everything you need to perform agarose gel electrophoresis.

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.

Explore how genetic engineering can be used to modify crops to introduce favorable traits.

Ideal for Pre or Post-Lab Exercise.

Cleave plasmid DNA and map the relative positions of restriction sites.

Let your students isolate, amplify and visualize their own Mitochondrial DNA.
