Amplify understanding as students model the molecular processes in your pGLO or crime scene labs. Are your students curious about how COVID or flu tests work? Now, they can easily model diagnostics, forensics, and bacterial transformation at the molecular level using color-coded foam nucleotides. Teacher-developed and tested lessons are included in the kit. The Biotechnology Kit is made entirely out of foam and includes 608 DNA nucleotides, 39 DNA primers, 5 membranes, and 32 dideoxynucleotides. These pieces can be used to model a polymerase chain reaction, restriction enzyme digests, plasmid ligations, and Sanger sequencing in the classroom.
Simulate PCR using flanking primers results to copy sequences of interest
Investigate how restriction endonucleases are used in DNA cloning
Explore the Sanger DNA sequencing method using chain-terminating fluorescent dideoxy nucleotide analogs
