Electrophoresis to test simulated water samples for bacteria and viruses

  • Students simulate real-world disease surveillance by analyzing wastewater for Norovirus and E. coli using gel electrophoresis
  • Hands-on use of core biotech tools to detect and identify pathogens in simulated water samples
  • Demonstrates how wastewater testing gives early warnings of outbreaks and informs public health responses
  • This project was made possible by a Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA),
  • Grant Number 2R44GM143977-02, from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH)
  • Wastewater testing is a public health tool that helps scientists track specific diseases in a community
  • In this experiment, students use electrophoresis to test simulated water samples for bacteria and viruses
  • By learning how wastewater monitoring works, students see how biotechnology helps protect public health
