ScienceBridgeLabs_Purificationcolumn PROTEIN PURIFICATION

Students will use column chromatography to isolate fluorescent proteins from a mixture of cell debris.

enzymelab ENZYME SUBSTRATE REACTIONS

Students will use the enzyme tyrosinase (extracted from mushrooms) to observe an enzymatic reaction under different conditions.

BACTERIAL TRANSFORMATION

Fluorescent proteins are used often in laboratory research. What makes this lab special is that Dr. Roger Tsien at UCSD developed a rainbow of colors that we can transform into bacteria in your classroom!

OCEAN ACIDIFICATION

Ocean acidification is a phenomenon related to current global climate changes and is becoming a major threat to marine ecosystems ranging from tropical coral reefs to the chilly waters of the Antarctic.

RNAi AND GENETICS

RNAi is an excellent way to examine the process of the central dogma. In this lab, we will look at the microscopic nematode, C. elegans.

smells2

SENSE-ABLE SMELLS

Students will learn that odors are molecules that have a specific shape. Students will also learn why chemists write chemicals the way they do!
