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™ Using CRISPR to Treat Cystic Fibrosis Kit
Simulate the use of CRISPR-Cas9 to target a genetic mutation found in a patient suffering from Cystic Fibrosis. Students will develop an understanding of guide RNA (gRNA) design, and use agarose gel electrophoresis to examine pre-prepared DNA samples after CRISPR treatment.
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™ Battling Bacteria: Ecosystem Dynamics in a Petri Dish Kit
Students create their own microbial ecosystems to investigate the dynamics of competition and abiotic/biotic change on community composition. By using bacteria with short generation times students can observe, test, and collect their own data on key ecological phenomena in a single week!
Edvotek™ How Clean is Clean? Testing the Effectiveness of Antibacterial Cleaners Kit
Students will do two experiments to explore the properties of bacterial growth. They will determine a bacteria's ability to resist the antibiotic ampicillin, then test different household cleaners to determine which one is the most effective at preventing bacterial growth.
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™ 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.
29-Series Pop Beads
Create models of DNA strand, DNA replication, RNA conversion, cell organelles, ribosomes, mitochondria and a nucleus.
Innovating Science™ Stem Investigations: Design a Biodegradable Plastic Kit
Innovating Science™ Stem Investigations: Design a Biodegradable Plastic Kit looks at engineers who are developing bioplastics that break down quickly, and produce less harmful byproducts. In this lab, students make samples of bioplastics to study how composition affects physical properties.
Innovating Science™ Small Group Learning: Enzymes And Digestion
Students will expose three nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids) to different digestive enzymes. The samples will be compared to nutrients to which no enzymes are added and chemical tests will be used to determine if the enzymes were effective in digesting the compounds.
Innovating Science™ Introduction to Basic, Selective, and Differential Media Kit
With the Introduction to Basic, Selective, and Differential Media Kit, students will learn about the different types of media that can be used to grow bacteria. They will make predictions, streak the different media with bacteria cultures, and evaluate bacteria growth.
Innovating Science™ Small Group Learning: Introduction to Microbiology
This Small Group Learning: Introduction to Microbiology kit will allow students to collect and grow bacteria and then learn techniques for studying the bacteria they have grown.
Walter Products DNA Activity Model
The human genes learning kit is a double helix structure model that restores the real molecular structure
NewPath Learning™ RNA Vaccines 3D Model Making Kit
The RNA Vaccines 3D Model Making Kit shows how RNA vaccines make vaccinated cells produce viral proteins (antigens), display them on their cell surface in Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecules and stimulate an immune response.
NewPath Learning™ Translation & Protein Synthesis 3-D Model Kit
Assemble and use 3-D models to visualize and investigate key science processes.
