You will find images of equipment and other features of performing the gel electrophoresis experiment. You can also post any questions about the experiment procedure below. Link back to DNA SAC page



Q. How should we be preparing for this SAC? As many of us have multiple SAC's next week, it would be better to begin preparing BEFORE Monday’s lesson; only, I’m not sure what is considered entirely relevant. I will assume that we know the very fine details of gel electrophoresis, but do we need to know about gene technology all round? Such as; types, applications, techniques, advantages, disadvantages? Yes, I purposely made this a long-winded question, not so that I would confuse you, but so that I could keep my (well deserved) reputation of sugar-coating. Nonetheless, I hope you can understand what I am TRYING to say. (i should learn to proofread or plan my questions and then I won't talk/type round in circles)... :) (i'm aware that :) doesn't make up for your time I have wasted, but I thought i would add it in to brighten up this already bright page) // A. Good thinking to try and prepare ahead of tuesday. You are right in that the majority of the SAC is about the epxperiment and gel electrophoresis. But you need to know more than that. You do not need to know about issues or anything like that but I do expect you to know about the different molecular tools and techniques we have covered. I will now post the criteria for the SAC (seeing as I have written it) as well as more info on the SAC page. VM //
