Description

Beginning—Easy to perform, requires little or no prior knowledge.

  • Introduces DNA fingerprinting and PCR, with no expertise needed with either technique
  • Gels can be run in 45 minutes with five 9-V batteries or overnight with 1 battery
  • Ready to use out of the box; prealiquoted reagents make setup easy

This technically simple experiment simulates the use of DNA in forensic investigations. Students cast agarose gels, load predigested DNA, and perform electrophoresis. They use the banding patterns of the DNA in the gel to compare the DNA fingerprints of 2 suspects with evidence and victim DNA.

Demonstration Kit includes materials for 2 demonstrations; Classroom Kit includes enough materials for 5 groups of students to perform the lab activity twice. Refill Kit includes enough reagents to perform the lab 10 more times. All 3 kits come with free 1-year access to digital resources that support 3-dimensional instruction for NGSS.

Note: Order bulk DNA 2 weeks prior to desired ship date.
