Biotechnology for Young Scientists Lab

Lab Investigation

Introduce your students to the basic technique of biotechnology - electrophoresis - with this complete, safe, affordable, & easy-to-use system.

Use electrophoresis to expose your students to the physical and chemical properties of DNA. This complete system includes a battery-operated electrophoresis chamber - featuring pure platinum electrodes. Also included are ready-to-use reagents to isolate DNA from wheat germ, onion, bacteria, or even liver as well as solutions to run and stain the DNA. The investigation also includes a one-of-kind activities book, Biotechnology Projects for Young Scientists - authored by Neo/SCI's own Kenny Rainis and George Nassis - which explores dozens of other projects which can be easily performed with readily available materials.

Accommodates class size of 40 students.
