CRISPR gene editing is revolutionizing scientific research. Now your students can do real CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing in the classroom using Bio-Rad's educational CRISPR gene editing kits. These kits use familiar — and safe — reagents, techniques, and organisms to bring your students to the cutting edge (“literally”) of molecular biology.
Perform CRISPR in the Classroom
Out of the Blue CRISPR and Genotyping Extension Kits
Use real CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to edit the lacZ gene in E. coli.
- Out of the Blue CRISPR Kit — apply CRISPR-Cas9 technology to introduce a stop codon into the genomic lacZ gene in E. coli and produce a phenotype that can be readily visualized through blue-white screening
- Out of the Blue CRISPR Genotyping Extension — (optional) confirm the edit at the molecular level using PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis
Deepen your understanding of CRISPR and the promise, risks, and ethics behind its many applications.
