Introductory Bacterial Conjugation Kit
Developed in cooperation with Dr. Robert Thomson, Marquette University. Useful for teaching bacterial identification and the intercellular transfer of genes for antibiotic resistance between microorganisms. Students identify and confirm the identity of bacteria with different antibiotic resistance by streaking on different antibiotic selective media. Strains are then combined on a "mating" plate to allow conjugation. Results are tested on various media for growth response to demonstrate that DNA can be transferred between 2 genetically different cells. Requires an overnight culture and minimal teacher preparation. Kit contains supplies for 12 to 24 students (6 stations). Note: Kit contains coupon for prepaid delivery of perishable materials. Contact us or return coupon 2 weeks prior to the requested delivery date to ensure prompt arrival of materials. Antibiotic solutions and cultures last one month when refrigerated.
