Electrophoresis Like you've never seen it before
Not long ago, I was fortunate enough to experience a demo of a MiniOne unit and like most life-long educators, I was excited to see advances in technology that will now enable our students to see real-time DNA results using a system that is safe and easy-to use. It is obvious that the MiniOne units are designed with students in mind. The MiniOne gel electrophoresis unit introduces technology that is easy-to-use, safe, and enables students to run a gel and see results in less than 50 minutes.
Why offer Gel Electrophoresis using the MiniOne in your lab?
Enhance learning processes through hands-on lab experiments
Gel electrophoresis is the most effective method to help students understand DNA. It bridges the gap from concept to comprehension through hands-on experimentation. Electrophoresis provides students the opportunity to learn molecular techniques through real-world situations.
Students see the DNA experiment in real-time
A key advantage of the MiniOne gel electrophoresis unit is the real-time factor. In as little as five minutes, students can watch the DNA move and capture images with their cell phones to document the process.
Easy-to-use and manage in a lab environment
Gel electrophoresis principles and applications can easily be integrated into your curriculum. From my experience, the MiniOne is optimized to provide the safest and fastest gel electrophoresis experience you can offer in your lab. The MiniOne allows students to run a gel in 20 minutes and utilizes safe blue light LED (not UV light) and non-hazardous GelGreen stain, a safe DNA staining agent.
The MiniOne unit provides students the best hands-on opportunity to experience DNA gel electrophoresis. Learn more here.
