    Featured Experiments

    O3 An Introduction to Electrophoresis
    This series of three experiments provides an introduction to agarose gel electrophoresis, In the first experiment, students identify unknown dye molecules by comparing the electrophoresis migration with the migration of known dyes. In the second,...
    S5 Genetic Engineering
    Recombinant DNA techniques played a central role in the recent emergence of biology into the golden age. This program enables the advanced student to approach these frontiers in biotechnology. The program provides a challenging series of seven 3-...
    EXP-1004 1004. Genotype to Phenotype
    This exercise was designed to provide an exciting introduction to specific gene structure and function. In the experiment, students are given two plasmids (A and B) which are identified in the instructors guide. One plasmid (A) has a functional gene...
    B3 1-3 Mini Program in Chromatography
    1. Separating Molecules by Gel Filtration Students fill their chromatographic columns with packing material and separate three colored molecules of known molecular weights as shown in the photograph below. The exercise illustrates how components of...
    IND-2 Tissue Printing
    Locating specific proteins and nucleic acid molecules in tissue sections is an important goal in cell biology. An effective and simple technique for this purpose is tissue printing which permits the localization of specific macromolecules in animal...
    IND-26 Localizing Tublin by Immunohistochemistry
    Microtubules are hollow cylinders made up of polymers of the protein tubulin. Microtubules are major components of cilia and flagella, which are tail like projections that are covered by a plasma membrane and extend outwards from the cell. Motile...
    IND-27 Composition of the Nucleosome
    The primary level of chromosome structure in eukaryotes occurs when the DNA molecule is wrapped around histone proteins into particles called nucleosomes. Evidence for this “beads on a string” model is derived from nuclease digestion studies. When...
