Education Supplies
Edvotek™ How Clean Is the Water We Drink and the Air We Breathe?
Learn about microbes present in our everyday environment.
Edvotek™ Biofuel from Alcohol Fermentation Experiment Kit
Designed to introduce basic concepts of fermentation and bioprocessing through the production of Ethanol in a small-scale fermentor. Edvotek™ Biofuel from Alcohol Fermentation Experiment Kit uses Saccharomyces cerevisiae to break down sugar into ethanol.
Edvotek™ Survey of Protein Diversity
Polyacrylamide-based.
Edvotek™ AP LAB 5: Photosynthesis
Key reagents are included to demonstrate photosynthesis.
Edvotek™ Detection of Genetically Modified Organisms Kit
Use of agarose gel electrophoresis to explore molecular methods used by scientists to identify genetically modified organisms.
Edvotek™ Safari Reunion
In this lab, students will perform electrophoresis on the DNA samples of two lions in order to return them to wildlife sanctuaries close to their ancestral home.
EDVOTEK™ Principles of PCR with SYBR™ Safe
In this Principles of PCR kit experiment, students are introduced to the principles and applications of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This simulation experiment does not contain human DNA and does not require a thermal cycler.
Edvotek™ What Is PCR and How Does It Work?
Demonstrates the process of DNA amplification by PCR.
Edvotek™ In Search of the Cholesterol Gene
This experiment includes reagents for the colorimetric enzymatic reaction which is the basis of the clinical cholesterol test. In addition, using agarose gel electrophoresis, students will analyze a simulated genetic screening for a disease.
Edvotek™ Detection of a Simulated Infectious Agent
Tracking an outbreak by understanding the pattern of disease transmission.
EDVOTEK™ Immune Clues : Diagnosing Allergic Reactions
In immune clues students will review a patient’s symptoms and meal history, perform a simulated skin prick allergy test to identify possible triggers, and use a component-resolved diagnostic simulated blood test to distinguish between a true food allergy and cross-reactivity.
EDVOTEK™ From Field to Flask : Investigating Nitrogen Impact on Waterways
Students will explore sources of nitrogen in our environment by testing samples for nitrates and nitrites using the Griess reagent
EDVOTEK™ Detection of Mad Cow Disease with SYBR™ Safe
In this Detection of Mad Cow Disease with SYBR™ Safe experiment, students examine simulated PCR products from several feed mills to determine if any animal parts were included in the cattle feed.
EDVOTEK™ The Great Mum Mix Up
Students will use agarose gel electrophoresis to differentiate between genetically engineered true blue chrysanthemums and artificially-dyed flowers
Edvotek™ In Search of the Sickle Cell Gene by Southern Blot
Use Southern blots to detect mutations while gaining insight about the effects of sickle cell anemia.
