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....

The PhET project at the University of Colorado creates "fun, interactive, research-based simulations of physical phenomena." This particular simulation deals with Beer's Law: "The thicker the glass, the darker the brew, the less the light that passes through." Make colorful concentrated and dilute...

Promotional materials include two flyers for the Integrating Biotechnology and Applied Engineering to Meet Emerging Advanced Technological Workforce Needs (Bio Blend) project. The goal of this project is to produce 15 ready for hire graduates by developing four courses and adding to the industry...

The Bio-Link how to guides discuss topics that are important for biotechnology and life science programs at two-year colleges. The guides are organized into the following topic areas: access the code of federal GMP regulations, connect With Bio-Link through social media, detect genetically modified...
