Standard DNA is also provided
Each gel can be shared by 2-3 students

Understand principle of crime test analysis based      upon DNA fragmentation.
Understand the principles of DNA fingerprinting.
Understand principle of agarose gel electrophoresis.

DNA fingerprinting is a common method used for medical, forensic and paternity tests. This experiment includes predigested DNA samples from a hypothetical crime scene and two suspects. Various fragments of DNA are separated during agarose gel electrophoresis. Pattern of DNA fragments obtained from the suspect(s) are compared with the DNA fragments from crime scene samples. Depending upon the unique DNA pattern of a stained gel, students will find out the suspect involved in a crime. No human DNA is used in this experiment.



Time Needed to Complete the Experiment:
Casting the gel: 25 minutes.
Loading DNA samples: 10 minutes.
Running time for electrophoresis: 45 minutes.


Staining time:
2-3 hrs for methylene blue stain or instant results with ethidium bromide stain.


Kit includes following items:
Predigested DNA samples (pre-cut with different restriction enzymes).
5 different samples (each 100 µl); Each sample contains different sizes of DNA      fragments.
Standard DNA (100 µl) for comparing fragments of various sizes.
Loading pipet of fix 20 µl volume. This pipet is extremely durable which can be used up to      5,000 times.
Microfuge tubes rack of 96 loading tips.
Heavy duty test tube rack containing 80 holes for microfuge tubes.
Agarose, enough for 10 gels
Concentrated electrophoresis buffer, enough for 10 gels
DNA staining solution.
Gel running buffer.
Measuring tubes (15 ml and 50 ml capacity) & microfuge tubes.
Instructions sheet
Blank sample for agarose gel as practice.
Videotape of Agarose Gel Electrophoresis.


Other Requirements:
Beakers, Hot Plate or Microwave.
