Amgen Biotechnology Experience
Workshop: Colony PCR Lab New
This free training covers the newest ABE experiment “The Colony
PCR Lab”. White and red colonies obtained from the ABE bacterial
transformation experiment (Lab 5) will be tested for gene
differences. DNA from individual colonies will be amplified through
polymerase chain reaction and analyzed by gel electrophoresis.
This lab demonstrates the connection of phenotypes and genotypes.
Limited to 24 teachers who have successfully taught ABE Lab 5
