Budget-friendly DNA gel electrophoresis
With the Viewit™ Illumination Kit, you can see DNA separation in real time
Gel electrophoresis is an essential biotech method that can engage students in topics across the biology curriculum, from genetics and human health to ecology and evolution.
Now you can bring DNA gel electrophoresis to your classroom at an unbeatable price
The Bandit™ system is a safe and low-cost STEM activity kit students can use to build and run a working electrophoresis system. With the addition of the Viewit™ illumination kit, students can visualize DNA samples during gel electrophoresis in real-time!
The simplest way to get both is the Bandit Duo™ Electrophoresis System. It includes:
- The Bandit™ STEM Electrophoresis Kit, to build and run a reusable gel electrophoresis system
- The Viewit™ Illumination Kit, to watch DNA bands separate in real time under safe blue light
- A USB-C power supply (100–240 V)
- An on-the-go storage case
Already own a Bandit? Add the Viewit™ Illumination Kit to see DNA bands as your gel runs.
