This video from CUNY Kingsborough Community College describes the process of pipetting. The brief demonstration is described step by step and would be easy to replicate in a laboratory setting. Running time for the video is 2:27.

In this lab activity from the Biotechnology Alliance for Suncoast Biology Educators (BASBE), students will use a compound microscope to examine a few simple plant and animal tissues and explore the idea of different cell types that specialize in their form and function. Students then submit a set of...

In this activity, students will gain an "understanding of a commonly published diagram of global carbon pools and fluxes. Students create a scaled 3-D visual of carbon pools and net fluxes between pools with anthropogenic influences." Targeted at middle school through undergraduate students (grades...

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) enables researchers to produce millions of copies of a specific DNA sequence in approximately two hours. This automated process bypasses the need to use bacteria for amplifying DNA. This animation from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Dolan DNA Learning Center presents...

From the University of California, Davis, Partnership for Plant Genomics Education, this biotechnology laboratory is an eight-day activity in which students take samples of their own DNA from the lining of their mouths and use "a powerful molecular biology technique, Polymerase Chain Reaction, to...

This lecture series, from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Biointeractive project, features the following lectures: "Understanding Embryonic Stem Cells," "Adult Stem Cells and Regeneration," "Coaxing Embryonic Stem Cells," and "Stem Cells and the End of Aging." Each lecture, available in Flash...
