EDVOTEK™ Genetic Flightplan: Navigating Galapagos Finch Diversity
The objective of this 'Finch Diversity' experiment is to investigate the genetic basis of beak size variation in Galapagos finches before and after a drought event using Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) analysis.
EDVOTEK™ Aquatic Detectives: Solve the Mystery of the Contaminated Waterway
In this 'Aquatic Detectives' kit experiment, students will investigate water pollution and test simulated water samples to determine what contamination is present. They will then determine which factories in the narrative contributed the pollutants.
EDVOTEK™ Code Breakers: Using CRISPR to Rewrite Genetics
In this 'Code Breakers' experiment, students explore cutting-edge genetic engineering using CRISPR-Cas9 to knock out the purple chromogenic genes in classroom safe bacteria. Additionally, students test the specificity of CRISPR-Cas9 by using a non-specific CRISPR gRNA template.
Edvotek™ Ready-to-Load DNA Sequencing Kit
Used to introduce genome concepts and help students gain a better understanding of the science behind DNA sequencing. Edvotek™ Ready-to-Load DNA Sequencing Kit is for 8 lab groups.
Edvotek™ Chemotaxis: The Science of Attraction in C. elegans Experiment Kit
In this experiment, students observe and record the phenomenon by which normal and mutant strains of C. elegans can direct their movement in response to certain chemicals in the environment. Edvotek™ Chemotaxis: The Science of Attraction in C. elegans Experiment Kit contains five LIVE materials.
Edvotek™ Linking STEM to Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Educational Kit
Help students to learn about application of gel electrophoresis in DNA Fingerprinting, DNA Paternity Testing, Genetics (related to health and well-being), and the detection of Genetically Modified Foods. Edvotek™ Linking STEM to Agarose Gel Electrophoresis kit is supplied with four unique module options.
Edvotek™ What's In My Lunch? Quantitative Milk Allergy ELISA Experiment Kit
Inquiry-based experiment, students learn about the concepts and methodology behind the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Edvotek™ What's In My Lunch? Quantitative Milk Allergy ELISA Experiment Kit helps in detecting the presence of whey protein in various food products.
Edvotek™ Effects of Alcohol on C. elegans Experiment Kit
The objective of this experiment is to observe and record the effects of alcohol on normal and alcohol mutant strains of Caenorhabditis elegans. Edvotek™ Effects of Alcohol on C. elegans Experiment Kit contains LIVE materials and must be requested 1 week prior to lab.
Edvotek™ Environmental Toxicity Response in C. elegans Experiment Kit
In this experiment, students will observe and compare the effects of heavy metals found in the environment on normal and mutant strains of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Edvotek™ Environmental Toxicity Response in C. elegans Experiment Kit contains five LIVE materials.
Edvotek™ Diversity of Fish Proteins
Determine the relationship between three fish species based on their protein profiles.
Edvotek™ Analysis of Restriction Enzyme Cleavage Patterns of DNA
Observe patterns and frequency of cleavage through agarose gel electrophoresis.
Edvotek™ The Mystery of the Crooked Cell
Demonstrates detection of the mutation that causes sickle cell anemia.
Edvotek™ Transformation of E. coli with pGAL™ (Blue Colony)
Presence of IPTG is not required.
Edvotek™ A-maize-ing Editing: Using CRISPR to Improve Crops Kit
Students will assume the role of plant geneticists working to develop corn crops capable of thriving in a changing environment. This experiment will allow students to develop an understanding of CRISPR-Cas9 applications, cleave DNA, and examine results after gel electrophoresis.
Edvotek™ PCR Beads
Provide the reagents for Polymerase Chain Reactions (PCR) in a convenient, ambient-temperature-stable bead.
