Bandit™ STEM Electrophoresis Kit

Build-your-own gel electrophoresis system for STEM education!

Function and Applications
Bandit™ is a safe and low-cost STEM activity kit students can use to build and run a working electrophoresis system. Bring this essential technique to your class through an integrated science and engineering approach.

Benefits

• For very young students in grades 6 to 9

• Integrative: Equally well suited for physical science and life science classrooms

• Fast: electrophoresis run finished within 25 minutes

• Safe: Runs on safe USB power - no power supply required

• Durable: Sturdy components stand up to repeated use

• Cost-effective

• Simple: No need for additional stains or visualizers - runs with dyes, students can see their results as the gel runs

• Sustainable: No batteries required, and electrodes are reusable
