WARD’S Investigating Antibiotic Resistance Through Conjugation Lab Activity |
Identify Host and Donor Bacteria in Gene Transfer Activity |
Conjugation, one method of transferring antibiotic-resistance, or R factors, to bacteria, is explored in this lab. Students transfer the genes for antibiotic resistance between different strains of bacteria, then determine which bacteria are the hosts and which are the donors, and whether chromosomal or plasmid DNA was transferred. For even greater convenience, the lab activity features Easygel, a premeasured, sterilized media that requires no autoclave or hot waterbath. The activity contains enough materials for six setups, a teacher’s guide, and student copymaster. Note: Includes perishable materials. Please specify delivery date.
