Bandit STEM Electrophoresis Kit at a glance

The Bandit™ STEM Electrophoresis Kit is a low-cost, high-fun kit you can use to introduce students to biotechnology. How does it work?

With Bandit, we break electrophoresis down into a few simple steps:

  1. Cast your gel: Turn prep into pedagogy when you make gel casting part of your experiment. Use our From Circuits to Molecules Bandit Building Activity to encourage students to connect what they’re doing to the science underlying gel electrophoresis.
  2. Prepare your electrodes: Electrophoresis goes interdisciplinary when you incorporate circuit-building into your experiment. Go beyond light bulbs and show students how circuits power the biotechnology they use in the classroom every day.
  3. Load your gel: Pick the Learning Lab™ that’s right for you to augment your study of inheritance, Mendelian genetics, DNA structure, and more. (And psst… here’s a sneak peek at some upcoming labs built especially for Bandit).
  4. Run your gel: With our dye electrophoresis Learning Labs, students can watch their samples run in real time, without the need for separate visualization equipment.
