Biotechnology

Introductory and advanced biotechnology kits, equipment and supplies. Flinn Scientific offers a comprehensive biotechnology laboratory system so any school can build their own biotechnology lab for electrophoresis studies.

360Science™: DNA Forensics

360Science™ blends the best of student-engaging digital content with easily adaptable hands-on labs to offer your students a uniquely comprehensive learning experience.

In this lab experience, six groups of students use a separation technique known as gel electrophoresis to separate segments of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or proteins according to the size of the segment and the relative electric charge of that segment. Students measure each of four DNA fragment bands from a simulated crime scene sample and from three “suspects.” The students use the “police report” and the results from the electrophoresis to formulate an explanation of which suspect they believe is the criminal. Editable, differentiated instructions range from a time-sensitive prescriptive lab to full open inquiry, and robust online videos and content—including a virtual reality (VR) simulation—help students prepare for and better understand the labs they’re conducting.

DLAB Dry Baths

DLAB Dry Baths provide a variety of features for your lab.

Cardboard Centrifuge Tube Racks

Sturdy cardboard rack for centrifuge tubes. Holds up to 25 tubes. Easy to use and recyclable.

Electrophoresis Gel Casting Tray, 7 x 14 cm

Standard-sized gel casting trays to make gel electrophoresis easier. This 7 x 14 cm tray allows for greater separation of bands than a 7 x 7 cm tray and allows you to make gels while other gels are running.

PCR Thermo Cycler, TC1000-S

The TC1000-S PCR Thermo Cycler combines high performance with an intuitive touch-screen user interface. PCR thermo cyclers are essential in the fields of biotechnology, cloning, genotyping, mutagenesis, and sequencing, to name a few.

Thermo Mix Dry Baths

The Thermo Mix series of dry baths allows for precise and efficient heating and mixing for use in a variety of applications, such as gene synthesis, gene purification, gene and protein denaturation, enzymatic reaction, bacterial growth, and more. Three dry bath models are available to choose from.
