In this miniPCR Learning Lab™, you will help astronauts control an outbreak of pathogenic bacteria in space food bound for Mars! Learn how to use miniPCR™ (the PCR machine aboard the International Space Station), restriction analysis, and DNA gel electrophoresis to characterize bacterial strains and protect the health of astronauts.
In this 120-minute miniPCR Learning Lab™, you will help the International Space Agency control an outbreak of pathogenic bacteria in space food bound for Mars! Learn how to use miniPCR™ (the PCR machine aboard the International Space Station), restriction analysis, and DNA gel electrophoresis to characterize bacterial strains and protect the health of astronauts.
This applied biotechnology investigation addresses a foodborne illness outbreak through the same real-world methodologies that public health and surveillance authorities use here on Earth. You’ll learn molecular microbiology techniques relevant to the STEM job market, and engage in a real-world problem with huge public health and economic impact.
To learn more about miniPCR aboard the International Space Station, watch this video or visit www.genesinspace.org.
This miniPCR Learning Lab™ utilizes the following molecular techniques:
The miniPCR Food Safety Lab kit contains reagents for 8 lab groups of 4 students:
