The Western blot test, an analysis of polypeptides and proteins, is used as a “second generation” immunoassay on samples that have tested positive for HIV antibodies. Now students can analyze polypeptides and proteins, utilizing the Western blot test in a lab activity that’s suitable for advanced high school and college classes. Best of all, the lab activity does not require the use of real blood. The lab activity, which can be performed using agarose gel electrophoresis, can be completed in two 90 minute lab sessions, and it comes with enough materials for up to five blots, a teacher’s guide, and student copymaster. An agarose electrophoresis chamber, power supply, and 20 μL micropipets, all required, are available separately. Note: Includes perishable materials. Please specify delivery date.
