EDVOTEK DNA Paternity Testing Simulation Kit
EDVOTEK DNA Paternity Testing Simulation Kit
B8R06001
Product code: B8R06001
Product Description
*Please Note: This is a simulated Paternity Testing Kit for use in education. It is not suitable for diagnostic or clinical use*
This experiment introduces students to the use of DNA fingerprinting in a simulated paternity determination. A child's DNA fingerprint is compared with his parents. The experiment does not contain human DNA.
- Group Size: 8 gels / lab groups
- Storage: Stable at room temperature, storage of Ready-To-Load QuickStrip™ samples in the refrigerator is recommended
- Time Required: Complete in 45 minutes
The kit includes:
- Full instructions
- Ready-To-Load QuickStrip™ DNA samples
- UltraSpec-Agarose™
- Electrophoresis Buffer (50x)
- Practice gel loading solution
- FlashBlue™ DNA Stain
- Disposable pipettes
Additional required materials (not included with the kit):
- DNA Electrophoresis Tank, with accessories including casting trays, micropipettes & special power supply (B8R03273)
- Adjustable Micropipette (B8R05604)
- Micropipette Tips (PP00052738)
- White Light Box - optional
- Microwave or hot plate (B8R04379)
- Kit includes all reagents required to perform a simulated Paternity Test.
- Learn genetics and molecular biology techniques by solving a hypothetical paternity case
- Introduce students to restriction enzymes, PCR, and electrophoresis
- Perform agarose gel electrophoresis to separate differently-sized DNA molecules
- Load, run, analyze, and size pre-digested PCR samples to determine the biological parents of a child
- A-Level Genetics: Principles & Applications of Electrophoresis
- Paternity Testing
- Full supporting materials included.
- EDVOTEK YouTube Channel is full of useful resources.
- When visualising completed gels using a white light box, cover the light box with clingfilm to prevent any damage.
