Beginning - Easy to perform; requires little or no prior knowledge. A fun and fascinating laboratory activity not only shows students how to isolate human genomic DNA, it lets them create DNA necklaces they can actually wear. Students extract DNA by lysing their cheek cell sample, then watch as wispy white strands of their own DNA precipitate out of a solution containing ethanol. After transferring their DNA to plastic microcentrifuge tubes, students fashion the tubes into DNA pendant necklaces using colorful string. This is one easy lab activity that really gets your students talking about...

I love this lab. I use it with my freshmen in Biology. It is easy to set up and use. Best of all the students are able to see their results very quickly. The lab questions are also great. Ive had students say this was their favorite lab in the course! I highly recommend this product.
This product all inclusive learning and fun.

This product was everything I hoped it would be. My elementary students enjoyed being able to see their own DNA and proudly wore it around the school. It was the highlight of our CSI study.
I paid $25 per student, last year, to do this SIMPLE experiment at a local Universitys lab center. Tjis year I chose to do this much more affordable option and got the exact same results. Super simple, super affordable, super fun!
Great hands on activity
