Forensics—DNA Evidence, continued
DNA Forensics—Student Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Students become forensic scientists and use biotech-
nology to solve a crime by analyzing DNA samples collected at the “crime scene.” The DNA samples are run using a gel electrophoresis and distinct bands separate, clearly leading to the guilty person. Use this nonviolent scenario to teach your students about DNA electrophoresis and forensics! Includes instructors and student instructions, plus a crime report, and all the materials necessary to run six gels.
Complete for 6 student groups. Super Value Kit is complete for 30 student groups. Requires electrophoresis apparatus and power supply. DNA source is Lambda phage.*
DNA Paternity Testing—
Student Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Paternity testing—real “buzz” words in the world today. Now students will perform a paternity test using enzyme-restricted DNA to determine the descendant of one of the greatest thinkers of the Renaissance. The DNA is ready to load into student-prepared electrophoresis gels. After electrophoresis, students will clearly see the resulting DNA bands and be able to easily identify each band to solve the mystery. Students learn about restriction enzymes, DNA inheritance and important electropho- resis techniques with this engaged lab experience. This kit contains comprehensive background information about paternity testing and DNA analysis plus step-by-step procedures, questions and Instructor’s Notes.
Complete with enough materials to run six gels. Requires electro- phoresis apparatus and power supply. DNA source is Lambda phage.*

DNA Fingerprinting 1
DNA fingerprinting has received a lot of attention as a forensic investi- gative tool. Already a deciding factor in numerous criminal cases, this technique can be effectively demonstrated in the lab. This laboratory will illustrate the basic principles of DNA fingerprinting, with the results being analyzed and discussed in terms of a hypothetical criminal case. DNA samples from two suspects, each cleaved with two different restriction enzymes, are electrophoresed on a gel along with samples taken from the crime scene. Analysis will determine the guilty party.
Requires electrophoresis apparatus, balance, power and heat supply, and white light visualization system. Components need refrigeration. Enough materials for 4–6 runs. DNA source is Lambda phage.*
