SIMPLE DNA EXTRACTION

All Freebies

Click picture to download.

This is one of my all time favorite activities to do with my biology students.  It truly is a very simple experiment.  I use this with my high school students, but it can easily (and safely) be done by middle and upper elementary students.

Yep!  That is the DNA!

Simple DNA Extraction Lab Download

You will use ordinary Dawn dishwashing detergent and alcohol to extract the DNA from the cells of wheat germ. The download will include a lab handout that is ready to be copied and passed out to your students. Includes: Title, Introduction, Purpose, Safety Precautions, Procedure, and Follow Up Questions.

I have also included a “Teacher Preparation” page with answers to the questions and some additional set up information.

Enjoy!
