Cat. #142 The Science Behind Finding a Perfect Match: Blood Typing for Stem Cell Transplants

For 10 Lab Groups. In this experiment, students will take on the role of transplant physicians. They will analyze simulated blood samples for transplant compatibility and compare genetic markers to identify which donor is the best match for a leukemia patient in need of a stem cell transplant.

• Students will analyze simulated blood samples using real world techniques utilized in biomedical labs • Learn to count white blood cells using a hemocytometer

• Perform blood compatibility tests to reveal information about donor blood samples • Determine who is the best candidate to donate stem cells to patient in need

Cat. #314 In Search of the Cancer Gene

For 6 Groups. Suppressor genes such as p53 are essential for cell func- tions. Mutations in the p53 gene can be correlated to predisposition for certain cancers. Mutations in genes can either be inherited or ac- cumulated due to environmental insults. This experiment deals with a family pedigree determination of several generations relating to cancer formation due to p53 gene mutation. This experiment does not contain human DNA.
