ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:
Our Bestselling AP® Experiments are now in one easy mini bundle to make exploring inquiry-based biotechnology a snap! These kits include new enhanced protocols with slide presentations, fillable student lab notebook pages, and detailed instructor guides with practical tips to avoid pitfalls.
EDVO-Kit #223-AP08 Transformation of E. coli with Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) In this experiment, students will explore the biological process of bacterial transformation using E. coli and plasmid DNA. At the end of the activity, students will have experience observing and analyzing acquired traits (ampicillin resistance and fluorescence) as exhibited by transformed bacterial cells.
EDVO-Kit #AP09 Restriction Enzyme Analysis of DNA This experiment introduces the use of restriction enzymes as a tool to digest DNA at specific nucleotide sequences. Bateriophage lambda DNA has a linear structure and 6 Eco RI recognition sites. Separation by agarose gel electrophoresis of an Eco RI digest of lambda DNA will yield 6 bands (5 distinct bands, two are very close in size) corresponding to the DNA fragments.
