Cat. #125 The Great Mum Mix Up: Using Biotechnology to Identify Genetically Modified Flowers

For 8 gels. Genetic engineering can be used to modify food and flower crops to introduce favorable traits. In this experiment, students will use agarose gel electrophoresis to differentiate between genetically engineered “true blue” chrysanthemums vs. artificially-dyed flowers. By comparing the DNA pat- terns, students will discover how molecular biology can be used to distinguish between the genetically modified mums and the dyed ones.

ALSO Available with SYBR® Safe DNA Stain: Cat. #125-S

Cat. #922 Follow That Flush: Using Biotechnology to Stop Outbreaks

For 8 gels. Wastewater testing is a public health tool that helps scientists track specific diseases in a community. In this experiment, students use electro- phoresis to test simulated water samples for bacteria and viruses. By learning how wastewater monitoring works, students see how biotechnology helps protect public health.
