PCR-Based DNA Fingerprinting
PCR is an amazing technique used to “amplify” a mere trace of DNA into enough material to fully analyze. In this kit, students actually get to use this amazing modern technique! PCR amplification of simulated crime scene and suspect DNA is followed by separation of the PCR reaction products by electrophoresis. The non-human DNA is amplified using an easy-to-use PCR reaction pellet and premixed primer. Kit does not contain human DNA. Redemption coupon included to obtain live material.

PCR-Based VNTR Human DNA Typing
Advanced DNA analysis techniques in an easy-to-use kit! In this experiment, students isolate their own DNA for analysis, amplify the VNTR region using polymerase chain reac-
tion (PCR) and then separate the fragments of DNA using agarose gel electrophoresis. Students directly observe their own genotype and compare patterns or trends with those of their classmates. A complete review of modern biotechnol- ogy principles and procedures in one activity! Redemption coupon included to obtain live material.

Blue/White Cloning of a DNA Fragment— Student Laboratory Kit
Blue/white screening is one of the ways scientists determine whether cloning has been successful. In this kit, students complete a ligation, a transformation and an assay, based on the blue/white colony screening protocol. If the gene that expresses β-galacto- sidase is interrupted by the cloning plasmid, then white colonies will grow because the enzyme is not able to cleave the X-Gal indi- cator. If the β-galactosidase gene is not cut by the plasmid, then the X-Gal is cleaved into galactose and a blue indigo compound. So, if the colonies are blue, then the insertion failed.
