Edvotek™ Hack the Planet: Using CRISPR to Terraform Mars Kit
Simulate the use of CRISPR-Cas9 to modify bacterial DNA, which will then be transformed into auxotrophic E. coli that are incapable of surviving on the Martian surface. Only bacteria that receive the successfully edited DNA can survive, thrive, and help to terraform Mars!
Edvotek™ Restriction Enzyme Mapping
A prerequisite to cloning and DNA sequencing
Edvotek™ Detection of a Simulated Infectious Agent
Tracking an outbreak by understanding the pattern of disease transmission.
Edvotek™ Bioremediation by Oil-eating Bacteria
Examine the process by which compounds are broken down by microbes.
Edvotek™ Classroom DNA Electrophoresis LabStation™
The perfect way to bring DNA electrophoresis to your whole class! This LabStation™ provides all you need to run any DNA or dye electrophoresis kit with your students.
Edvotek™ Principles of PCR
Uses gel electrophoresis to gain an understanding of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) process and its applications.
Edvotek™ Molecular Weight Determination of Proteins
Introduce a simple method to determine protein subunit molecular weights using horizontal electrophoresis. Because the protein standards and 'unknowns' are prestained, the separation of proteins can be observed during electrophoresis.
Edvotek™ DNA Paternity Testing Simulation Kit
This experiment introduces students to the use of DNA fingerprinting in a simulated paternity determination. A child's DNA fingerprint is compared with his parents. The experiment does not contain human DNA.
Edvotek™ Determination of Protein Molecular Weight (Polyacrylamide-based)
Using prestained LyphoProteins™, subunit molecular weights are determined by analysis using denaturing SDS vertical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
EDVOTEK™ Using CRISPR To Treat Cystic Fibrosis with SYBR™ Safe
In this Using CRISPR To Treat Cystic Fibrosis with SYBR™ Safe experiment, students will simulate the use of CRISPR-Cas9 to target a genetic mutation found in a patient suffering from Cystic Fibrosis.
Edvotek™ Identification and Characterization of Bacteria Kit
Gram staining is a quick, effective, and medically relevant identification test that is essential for bacterial classification. Students will use this staining technique to examine the size, shape, arrangement, and gram status (+/-) of Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Micrococcus luteus.
Edvotek™ Diagnosing Huntington's Using PCR
Students will conduct a DNA fingerprinting exercise on simulated patient samples to determine if family members are heterozygous or homozygous for Huntington's Disease. Amplified DNA segments are then analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis.
Edvotek™ AP LAB 9: Biotechnology — Restriction Enzyme Analysis of DNA
For analysis of Eco RI cleavage patterns of lambda DNA
Edvotek™ Whose Fingerprints Were Left Behind? Experiment Kit
Find fingerprints invisible to the naked eye.
Edvotek™ Quick PCR
Lets students gain hands-on experience in the principles and practice of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
