About the DNA Extraction Kit™
What is DNA? Snow Globe edition!
You may not realize it, but you eat lots of DNA every day! But how much?...and what is DNA really? Can I see it? With this Incredible DNA Extraction Kit, you can!
This STEM science project kit takes you through a journey of extracting the genomic DNA from the cells that make up a strawberry. In just 15 minutes or less, you’ll be able to see just how much DNA exists within a typical strawberry - probably A LOT more than you think!
This is an all-in-one STEM project kit with no prior experience necessary. A perfect first step in your journey in exploring the world of biotechnology, biohacking & genetic engineering. Compatible with Ch. 1 of the Zero to Genetic Engineering Hero book to learn what is DNA, what is DNA made of, what is DNA's function, what is its structure and how can DNA be leveraged in biotechnology to make with biology.

What's included?
What else is needed?
Cleaning and safety supplies are not included in the kit. Necessary safety and cleaning supplies are latex or nitrile gloves, and a chlorinated bleach cleaner or a 10% solution of chlorinated bleach in a spray bottle (you can make this by adding 9 parts water to 1 part bleach in a spray bottle). You can add a Mini Safety Set to your kit which includes gloves and a reusable plastic apron to protect your clothes.
For more information about safety, set up and clean up, you can have a look at the instruction manual for the experiment linked in the Ressources section below, and at the "Practicing safe science" page.
