Safe
Our kits feature gel chambers that are completely safe when operated according to the instructions All materials in the kits are nontoxic. The carbon fiber electrodes are nonhazardous and biodegradable.

Convenient
The Exploring Electrophoresis kits can be used anywhere. All you need to add are batteries and distilled or deionized water. The kits can be stored for years at room temperature.

Simple
The clear, beautifully illustrated instructions make performing electrophoresis easy and fun.

Durable
The sturdy gel chambers should last a lifetime. The carbon fiber electrodes can be re-used several times but eventually must be replaced. However, each kit includes extra sheets of carbon fiber for electrode replacement. The electrical leads can also be re-used many times.


Exploring Electrophoresis of Dyes

Students separate mixtures of colorful dyes and identify the components by comparing them to standards. Effectively demonstrates the principles of electrophoresis. Gels can be run in 35 minutes with 5 (9-V) batteries (not included). The Demonstration Kit contains 1 set of apparatus and sufficient supplies for 3 demonstrations. The Classroom Kit contains 5 sets of apparatus and sufficient supplies for 15 demonstrations.

W1-21-1000 Demonstration Kit . . $35.00
W1-21-1002 Classroom Kit . . . . $145.00



Exploring Electrophoresis of DNA

Students separate mixtures of pre-cut DNA fragments. Samples are uncut lambda DNA, lambda DNA cut with EcoRI, and lambda DNA cut with HindIII. Effectively demonstrates the action of restriction enzymes and principles of electrophoresis. Gels can be run in 3 1/2 hours with 3 (9-V) batteries (not included) or overnight with 1 battery. The Demonstration Kit contains 1 set of apparatus and sufficient materials for 2 demonstrations. The Classroom Kit contains 5 sets of apparatus and sufficient materials for 10 experiments.

W1-21-1004 Demonstration Kit . . $40.00
W1-21-1006 Classroom Kit . . . . $170.00



Exploring Restriction Analysis and Electrophoresis of DNA

Students set up their own restriction digests of lambda DNA with BamHI, EcoRI, and HindIII using Instant DNA and Instant Enzymes included in the kit. Following digestion, the resulting DNA fragments are separated by electrophoresis. Gels can be run in 3 1/2 hours using 3 (9-V) batteries (not included) or overnight with 1 battery. Distilled or deionized water, batteries, and a 37ºC water bath are needed but not included. The Demonstration Kit contains 1 set of apparatus with materials for 2 separate experiments. The Classroom Kit contains 5 sets of apparatus with materials for 10 separate experiments.

W1-21-1008 Demonstration Kit . . $45.00
W1-21-1010 Classroom Kit . . . . $220.00
