Diversity of Fish Proteins

SKU: 253
$79.00

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:


Study the diversity of fish with these pre-stained, lyophilized proteins. Total protein from Perch, Walleye and Salmon is extracted and pre-stained using an indicator dye. Each fish protein sample has a characteristic banding pattern when separated by denaturing SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, which can be used to identify the specific species.

• Study fish diversity and proteins without the smell!
• Introduce protein chemistry and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
• Run and analyze protein samples of three fish plus a control using PAGE technology
• Pre-stained, lyophilized proteins make this experiment both fast and robust
