Equipment Suggestions for Getting Started
Setting up a classroom lab is never an easy task, especially when you are unsure as to what equipment would best fit your teaching needs. Outlined below are two different lab set-up suggestions. Only equipment and supplies are recommended on these lists. Reagents such as DNA, enzymes, and cells must be purchased separately as needed. These various lab set-ups are only recommendations, and you should feel free to set up your lab in whatever way you like. Feel free to call or write us to help you in planning a laboratory to meet your needs.
Electrophoresis Demonstration Station
