From the University of California, Davis, Partnership for Plant Genomics Education, this biotechnology laboratory is a five-day activity with bacterial transformations and green fluorescent protein. “In this lab activity, students will attempt to cause a wild type strain of E. coli to incorporate...

A portion of the Partnership for Plant Genomics Education, hosted by the University of California-Davis, this PDF presents a student activity where students will use agarose gel electrophoresis to separate several different dyes. The lab is described as a “precursor to DNA separations” and thus...

Micropipets are used in almost all biotechnology experiments. These precise instruments allow for the dispensing of extremely small volumes. This laboratory exercise will teach students to learn how to operate a micropipet, understand measuring volumes in microliters, and convert metric volumes....

Restriction mapping is a cornerstone of modern-day biotechnology. During this three-day exercise, students will digest samples of DNA with three different restriction enzymes. The DNA samples will be electrophoresed and the resulting fragments photographed under and ultraviolet transilluminator....
