STEM Learning: STEM equipment

A range of great STEM equipment to assist both teachers and students in their quest for learning about molecular biology. These include thermal cyclers controllable from a mobile phone, Gel electrophoresis unit that uses blue light  to visualise DNA bands whilst fitting in the palm of your hand.  Ther eis also mini centrifuge that not only looks great but is a very tough and versatile piece of essential equipment. Check out the P51 viewer, a cardboard  box that allows you to visualise DNA with ease. + many more
