DNA DURAGEL

DNA DuraGel™ gels are permanent polymer gels that allow students to practice the critically important skill of pipetting/gel loading. The clear, reusable gels are designed for the practice of loading 5 - 35 µl of samples. The gel grids are imprinted with a ruler for sizing DNA fragments. Also included are simulated FlashBlue™ and Ethidium Bromide gel images, ideal for representing how actual gels are stained with Methylene Blue and Ethidium Bromide.

• students learn how to load an agarose gel using a micropipette or a transfer pipet
• Permanent polymer gels let students practice and master this essential skill year after year
• simulate an electrophoresis experiment with matching gel images
• Calculate DNA fragment sizes using a linear standard curve
