AIDS Kit II: Simulation of HIV Detection by Western Blot

SKU: 275
$139.00

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:


The second assay used to confirm a positive HIV ELISA result is the Western Blot. Students separate protein samples from hypothetical patients on agarose gels, transfer the samples to a membrane and detect the simulated HIV proteins. This kit is an introductory level experiment. For a comprehensive advanced course, we recommend Cat. #317.

• Understand the theory and applications of Western blots
• Learn the molecular biology of HIV and the pathogenesis of AIDS
• Perform electrophoresis and a modified western blot to detect simulated viral proteins
• Easy set up using standard (horizontal) electrophoresis equipment
