Paternity Testing – Electrophoresis Education kit

Brand:

Cleaver Scientific

In this experiment, DNA from a mother, child and 2 possible fathers is seperated by electrophoresis to determine the paternity of the child. The human DNA is simulated with a series of unqiue fragments that form a profile for each sample, allowing students to identify the father based on the mother and childs seperation profiles.

This kit includes DNA, Agarose, electrophoresis buffer and DNA stain for 8 student groups.

Key Features

  • Perfect for 1 hour lessons
  • Introduce students to DNA and genetics
  • Works perfectly with Cleaver Scientific equipment

Cystic Fibrosis – Electrophoresis Education kit

Brand:

Cleaver Scientific

Cystic Fibrosis is one of the most common genetic conditions in the UK. In this educational kit, students will learn about the basis of the disease, and run an agarose gel to seperate DNA samples from healthy patients, carriers of the disease and CF patients.

Each kit included enough DNA, agarose gel, electrophoesis buffer and DNA stain for up to 8 groups of students (8 gels).

Key Features

  • Whole experiment takes less that 1 hour
  • Great for introducing genetic diseases and genetic screening to students
  • Works perfectly with Cleaver Scientific electrophoresis equipment

DNA Fingerprinting – Electrophoresis Education kit

Brand:

Cleaver Scientific

Our DNA fingerprinting kit is the perfect tool to introduce students to the world of electrophoresis and forensic science. DNA fingerprinting is a laboratory technique used to establish a link between biological evidence and a suspect in a criminal investigation. A DNA sample taken from a crime scene is compared with a DNA sample from a suspect. If the two DNA profiles are a match, then the evidence came from that suspect. Conversely, if the two DNA profiles do not match, then the evidence cannot have come from the suspect.

Each kit contains DNA, agarose gel, electrophoresis buffer and DNA stain enough for 8 groups of students to cast and run the experiment and visualise the DNA separation. The gel takes approximately 5 minutes to load, 30 minutes to run and 15 minutes to stain, meaning the whole experiment can be completed in a one hour lesson, with convenient incubation periods for scientific discussion and teaching. Students will solve a crime using an unknown DNA sample from the crime scene and a series of suspects!

Key Features

  • Perfect for 1 hour lessons
  • Introduce students to DNA and forensic science
  • Works perfectly with Cleaver Scientific equipment

TE Buffer

Brand:

Bio Basic

Description

This product is currently not available. Please contact us for more information.

‘TE is deriving from ‘Tris’, a common pH buffer and ‘EDTA’, a cation chelators like Mg2+. TE buffer is normally used in molecular biology to solubilize DNA, RNA or cDNA while protecting it from degradation, or used in the cell culture. Here, we provide TE buffer in 10x or 100x with pH ranging from 7.4 to 8.

1X and 10X TBE buffer (Tris-Borate-EDTA), Biobasic

Brand:

Bio Basic

Description

This product is currently not available. Please contact us for more information.

TBE buffer (Tris-Borate-EDTA, Biobasic) is commonly used in all DNA electrophoresis applications (both for acrylamide and for agarose gels). In general, TBE buffer offers better resolution of 0.1 to 3 kb fragments; whereas, TAE (Tris-Acetate-EDTA) buffer provides better resolution of fragments greater than 4 kb. Furthermore, TBE is better suited for high-voltage (>150V) electrophoresis because of its higher buffering capacity and lower conductivity than TAE. BIO BASIC INC. offers TBE in a number of different formats. 10X TBE liquid concentrate can be used to easily prepare a 1X TBE working solution by diluting with distilled, deionized water. 10X TBE Powder allows for the stable storage of the pre-mixed powder form that can be dissolved in distilled, deionized water to yield 1 liter each of 10X TBE buffer solution.

How to prepare a 10X TBE Buffer?

10X TBE buffer preparation is easy. Simply mix 10X TBE powder (SKU: A00269-500ml/A0026-4L) with an appropriate volume of distilled/deionized water. The 10X TBE buffer is ready to use now.

Brand:

Lonza

** This product has been discontinued.

Description

Stem cells possess the unique ability to proliferate as an undifferentiated cell type, then, when properly stimulated, differentiate into multiple lineages of cells. Lonza’s TheraPEAK™ MSCGM-CD™ Chemically Defined Mesenchymal Stem Cell Medium is a chemically defined, serum-free, xeno-free media designed to proliferate human bone marrow derived mesenchymal cells in an undifferentiated state. The medium has been specifically designed and tested to ensure that the medium neither promotes spontaneous differentiation of cells nor inhibits cell differentiation to osteogenic, chondrogenic, or adipogenic lineages (when properly stimulated with an appropriate differentiation media). Serum-free media, such as TheraPEAK™ MSCGM-CD™ Chemically Defined Mesenchymal Stem Cell Medium, are intended to support cell growth without serum supplementation. This medium is chemically defined indicating that it contain only constituents of known molecular structure. Lonza’s TheraPEAK™ MSCGM-CD™ Chemically Defined Mesenchymal Stem Cell Medium is of primary interest to those seeking maximal control over research and manufacturing variables. TheraPEAK™ MSCGM-CD™ Chemically Defined Mesenchymal Stem Cell Medium’s formulation is complete and contains human albumin, recombinant human insulin, pasteurized human transferrin, HEPES, and L-glutamine. TheraPEAK™ MSCGM-CD™ Chemically Defined Mesenchymal Stem Cell Medium does not contain phenol red or antibiotics. The basal medium (MSCBM-CD Mesenchymal Basal Medium, Chemically defined; catalog no.00190620) and the necessary supplements (MSCGM-CD™ SingleQuotsTMKit ; catalog no. 00192125) are included in this BulletKit.

Anti-phospho Histone H2A.X (Ser139), clone JBW301, Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate

Brand:

Merck

Description

Histone H2A.X is a variant of histone H2A, and is similarly associated with genomic DNA. However, histone is structurally different from other members of the H2A family in possessing a C-terminal tail that contains the Ser139 residue that is phosphorylated in response to breaks in double-stranded DNA. The phosphorylation of H2A.X is a rapid process that is mediated by ATM/ATR proteins.

Anti-phospho Histone H2A.X (Ser139), clone JBW301, Alexa Fluor® 647 Conjugate

Brand:

Merck

Description

As a member of the histone H2A family, histone H2A.x (H2A.x) is a variant histone H2A which replaces conventional H2A in a subset of nucleosomes. H2A.x is involved in the DNA repair of double-strand breakage (DSB) damage on nuclear DNA. After a double strand DNA break, H2A.x is rapidly phosphorylated at serine 139 by ATM kinase and becomes gamma-H2AFX. This phosphorylation step can extend up to several thousand nucleosomes from the actual site of the DSB and may mark the surrounding chromatin for recruitment of proteins required for DNA damage signaling and repair. As a part of posttranslational modifications during apoptosis caused by severe DNA damage, high expression of phosphorylated H2A.x is considered as an accurate indicator of apoptosis.

Anti-phospho-Histone H2A.X (Ser139), clone JBW301 (mouse monoclonal)

Brand:

Merck

Description

Histone H2A is one of the 5 main histone proteins involved in the structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Featuring a main globular domain and a long N terminal tail H2A is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the ‘beads on a string’ structure
