The Carolina Biological Exploring Electrophoresis of DNA Classroom Kit contains everything needed for students to separate mixtures of Pre-cut DNA fragments using samples of lambda DNA cut with EcoRI and HindIII along with uncut DNA.
This kit effectively demonstrates the action of restriction enzymes and the principles of electrophoresis.
Qty: 1 classroom kit including 5 mini apparatus (suitable for 5 groups)
Kit includes:
- Fully illustrated instructions
