We offer a short course on DNA isolation for laboratory beginners. First we learn how to use microlitre pipettes. Then we get down to business with the tomato! It is crushed and its DNA is released using a lysis buffer and flocculated with alcohol.
Alternatively, it is possible to extract DNA from your own oral mucosa cells. You will also learn interesting facts about cell biology and can ask the course leader any questions about heredity and genetic engineering.
