Kits: detection of mad cow disease, Ready-to-Load™
Supplier: EDVOTEK
Bovine spongiform encephalophathy (BSE), also known as Mad Cow Disease, is a neurodegenerative, fatal condition in cattle. Consuming BSE-infected beef is believed to be the cause of a similar condition in humans, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. In this experiment, students examine simulated PCR products from several feed mills, to determine any possible violations of the ban on including animal parts in cattle feed.

VWR® VisiGlo™ HRP Chemiluminescent Substrate Kits
Supplier: VWR Chemicals
VisiGlo™ and Visiglo Plus™ HRP chemiluminescent substrates are luminol-based chemiluminescent substrates designed for rapid and sensitive detection of peroxidase-labelled conjugates. Sensitivity ranges from picogram levels, captured by VisiGlo™ HRP chemiluminescent substrate, down to femtogram levels, exhibited by VisiGlo™ Prime and VisiGlo™ Select. VisiGlo™ Select displays the highest sensitivity, ideal for detecting low abundance proteins. The signal generated by substrate incubation is sustained between 8 to 10 hours allowing you to perform multiple exposures over an extended period of time.

Experimentation kits, DNA damage and repair
Supplier: EDVOTEK
According to the World Health Organisation, between two and three million cases of skin cancer occur globally every year. Many of these cases are caused by preventable damage to DNA by UV light. In this experiment, students expose plasmid DNA to shortwave UV light to simulate the effect of sunbathing. The DNA is then analysed by agarose gel electrophoresis to observe the damage.

Experimentation kits, detection of a simulated infectious agent
Supplier: EDVOTEK
An infectious outbreak requires prompt and accurate identification of the biological agent. Often, early clinical symptoms are first identified in exposed individuals and then infectious agents are identified by lab tests. In this experiment, students transmit a simulated infectious agent (chemical dye) between classmates which is only visible under long UV light. The pattern of transmission and primary source is documented.

VWR® shiroGEL Horizontal Electrophoresis System
Supplier: VWR Collection
Designed for ease of use and safe operation, the shiroGEL horizontal electrophoresis systems and accessories are built to withstand the rigours of everyday use. For leakproof performance the gel boxes and gel trays are moulded from thick acrylic. UV transparent gel trays aid in visualisation of samples. Cassettes protect the electrodes and allow for easy replacement. Gel casting is simple with the durable rubber casting gates. Slots in the sides of the trays allow for easy comb placement. The two-piece design of the combs allows for vertical adjustment, giving the user control over the depth of the well. The combs supplied with the systems are 1,5 mm thick. Multiple combs, including those compatible with multichannel pipettes and different thicknesses, are also available. The 'EasyLift' gel box lid is easily removed using the side tabs and pressure pads. The lid is domed, to prevent condensation from dripping onto the gel, and is surrounded by a drip ring, to help recover the condensate and maintain buffer concentration.

Bacterial Protein Extraction Kits, B-PER™
Supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific
B-PER® Bacterial Protein Extraction Reagents are designed to extract soluble protein from bacterial cells. The B-PER® Bacterial Protein Extraction Kit eliminates the need for harsh mechanical procedures, like sonication. The easy-to-use cell lysis solution uses mild non-ionic detergents to disrupt cells and solubilise proteins without denaturation. Enzyme supplements such as DNase I and Lysozyme allow for improved yield of large molecular weight proteins which are difficult to purify. B-PER® is also compatible with downstream protein purification methods such as GST purification and His-tagged immobilised metal affinity chromatography (IMAC).
