12% of your total order value. In addition, certain chemicals, microbiological specimens,<br />
and activity components classified as hazardous by the D.O.T. may be subject to additional<br />
packing and handling fees. These items may also be limited to certain delivery<br />

Weighing less than<br />
ten pounds, with<br />
reinforced hinges<br />
and Velcro® joints,<br />
this fuming chamber<br />
is sturdy when<br />
assembled, yet<br />
easy to collapse,<br />
transport, and<br />
store. When a<br />
cyanoacrylate<br />
adhesive, like Super Glue, is<br />
heated inside this chamber<br />
with any object containing<br />
prints, the fumes from the<br />
glue react with the residues in<br />
latent prints to produce visible<br />
white marks, which can then<br />
be processed. A special side<br />
port also allows for attaching<br />
exhaust tubes or inserting<br />
fuming wands. Inside dimensions:<br />
12"L x 12"W x 19"H.<br />
Outside dimensions: 14"L x<br />
14"W x 20 1 ⁄2"H. A carrying case<br />
is available separately for added<br />
convenience when trasnporting<br />
the portable unit. Fume chamber<br />
available to U.S. customers<br />
only; similar product will ship elsewhere. Carrying case not<br />
available outside the U.S.<br />

W Fingerprint Identification Using<br />
Magnetic Powder Lab Activity<br />
A Cleaner Method Than Traditional Inks or Powders<br />
Learn how to use magnetic fingerprint powder to lift latent fingerprints and<br />
identify their characteristics. Students will uncover three types of prints left at a<br />
crime scene and lift latent prints using magnetic fingerprint powder. For comparison<br />
they will take a set of their own fingerprints using the traditional ink<br />
technique. Students will also learn about the three basic patterns of fingerprints<br />
and the eight variations that can occur among them. The activity includes<br />
enough materials for 30 students, a teacher’s guide, and a student copymaster.<br />

A Fun and Educational Introduction to Criminalistics<br />
Your students will answer the question “Whodunit?” while learning how to dust and<br />
develop latent fingerprints. They “lift” sets of prints from various surfaces, turning<br />
them over for others to analyze. After comparing the prints to standards developed<br />
by the FBI, and working with “Modus Operandi” worksheets, the class will identify<br />
the suspects. The kit includes instructor’s and assessment guides, student data<br />
sheets, and all materials but the fingerprints for 24 students.<br />

CSIScope: Cordless Dual Purpose<br />
Comparison Microscope<br />
Explore Similarities and Differences in Trace Evidence<br />
The CSIscope combines a standard compound microscope with limited<br />
stereomicroscope capability and the convenience of a cordless model.<br />
Compare and contrast your evidence with this unique microscope. A<br />
single inclined binocular head is attached to two high-quality compound<br />
microscope bodies. By a simple adjustment of a variable position<br />
lever you can view the microscope on the left, the microscope on<br />
the right, or a split/variable view of the right and left microscopes<br />
simultaneously. A 2X objective and separate top light positioned in the<br />
nosepiece works together with a larger working distance, so you can<br />
now view large, macro, or opaque specimens. The paired 10X widefield<br />
eyepieces are mounted on a 360° rotatable Seidentopf-style head for<br />
the best custom fit to your eyes, and there is a diopter adjustment in<br />
one eyepiece. It also features a slip clutch to protect gears, and stage<br />
stops and retractable 40X objective to protect optics and slides. It<br />

Vehicle Lamp Examination Kit<br />
The <strong>Forensics</strong> of Traffic Accident Investigation<br />
When attempting to determine the chain of events which occurred in a<br />
vehicular collision, learning the whether the in-car lamps are lighted or<br />
unlighted at time of impact is extremely helpful. Filaments of incandescent<br />
lamps often provide the key, because filaments are made of tungsten<br />
and stresses generated on them by the forces associated with a collision<br />
produce deformation and fracture phenomena with characteristic differences<br />
between hot and cold filaments. Further evidence may also arise if<br />
the glass bulb is broken during the accident. The lamp samples included<br />
with this kit walk students through the procedures of vehicle lamp analysis.<br />
The samples have been broken under various circumstances and allow<br />
students to examine actual evidence. Worksheets included with the kit<br />
will help students report their findings. One unbroken standard car lamp,<br />
a voltmeter, and a detailed PowerPoint lecture exploring the characteristics<br />
associated with lamps involved in accidents are also included.<br />

bullets and shell casings without any safety concerns. Each<br />
ballistic set is a series of four real .45 caliber bullets or shell<br />
casings embedded in a hard resin. Because each bullet is<br />
encapsulated in plastic there is no need to worry about handling<br />
these items in the classroom; they are rendered inert<br />
and unusable. The bullets and shell casings in each set were<br />
fired from three separate guns. In the bullet set, students<br />
will observe the lands and grooves of the bullets, and on the<br />
shell casings set, they will examine the indentation of the firing<br />
pin on the primer and tool marks left from the weapon.<br />
From their observations they will ultimately determine that two of the bullets<br />
(or shell casings) will match, indicating they were fired from the same<br />
gun. Includes an attractive wood stand for display. Size of each embedment:<br />
approximately 1"W x 1 1 ⁄2"H.<br />

A Safe and Practical Method of Introducing<br />
Ballistic Evidence Into Your Classroom<br />
Guide your students through basic identification of bullets and shell casings<br />
with real evidence samples and accurate re-created examples.<br />
Using the included ballistic evidence, plastic bullets, economy trajectory<br />
rods and ballistic blocks, you can safely and effectively introduce<br />
methods of analyzing ballistic evidence. The Embedded Ballistics version<br />
of this activity includes real shell casings and bullets embedded in a<br />

W Paternity<br />
Testing Lab Activity<br />
Determine Familial<br />
Relationships with DNA<br />
Fingerprinting<br />
Paternity was once determined by<br />
blood type, based on the concept<br />
that a child’s blood type depends on<br />
the blood type of the parents. Yet<br />
blood type can only exclude possible<br />
biological parents, not definitively<br />
determine the identity of the real<br />
parents. With DNA fingerprinting,<br />
however, it is possible to establish familial relationships with a high<br />
degree of certainty. In this lab activity, students work with a real-life situation,<br />
electrophoresing nonhuman DNA samples, simulating those of<br />
a child, mother, and two possible fathers; compare the banding patterns;<br />
and determine which of the two men is the most probable match<br />

the included materials they will learn to use the various functions of<br />
their camera such as zoom, exposure settings and flash in order to generate<br />
quality pictures in challenging situations. After learning how perspective, contrast,<br />
and lighting conditions affect their photographs, students will use their<br />
skills to document a crime scene and retrieve certain information from their<br />
photographs as if it were to be evidence presented in court. Includes a<br />
teacher’s guide, student copymaster, reference images on CD-ROM, and other<br />
materials for one class.<br />
Minimum specifications of the digital camera required for this activity:<br />

From simple puncture wounds associated with sharp instrument trauma to<br />
firearms entry and exit wounds, this kit is critical in studying forensics.<br />
Especially useful in crime scene simulations, the wound set asks students: Can<br />
you recognize pattern ligature in strangulation? What was the murder weapon?<br />
What does a single-bladed knife stab wound look like compared to a doubleedged<br />
blade wound? What are the differences between the wound of mechanism<br />
for suicide and hesitation marks? Each of these questions and more are<br />
addressed with a set of simulated wounds that also includes moulage wax,<br />
coagulant blood, and a selection of makeup for designing your own wounds of<br />
bruising, blanching, and lividity. The entire kit comes placed in a sturdy carry<br />
case for protection and ease of transportation to the training or simulation site.<br />
This innovative kit contains carefully sculpted models of injuries taken from<br />
actual victim’s wounds and reviewed by forensic education professionals insuring<br />
real scene representations of trauma commonly found on violent crime victims.<br />
The details in the wounds are designed to determine type of weapon,<br />
direction of force, and other related details that only come with realistic trauma<br />
reproduction. Wounds include: Petechiae; Ecchymosis; Pattern Ligature;<br />
Slash; Shotgun close range; Shotgun; Intermediate range; Intermediate range<br />

This cross-curriculum<br />
course was developed<br />
for the Duke University<br />
Talent Identification<br />
Program (TIP). Each of<br />
the ten modules begins<br />
with a lecture by<br />
Marilyn Miller,<br />
Professor of Forensic<br />
<strong>Science</strong> at New Haven<br />
University, as she<br />
explains how to search<br />
for and analyze crime scene evidence. Following each lecture, students<br />
apply the methods they learned to real-life exercises. Once students have<br />
mastered the skills necessary to investigate a crime, they will take on the<br />
role of a forensic investigator and attempt to solve a true-to-life crime on<br />
the computer. At the end of the investigation, students can build their<br />
college portfolio by sending their work to Duke TIP to receive a certificate<br />
of completion. The program also comes with an actual fingerprinting kit.<br />

Biotechnology | DNA Extraction<br />
DNA On A Chain Lab Activity:<br />
Extraction and Isolation Laboratory with a New Twist<br />
Display Your DNA<br />
Developed in partnership with Brookhaven National Laboratory, this DNA extraction lab involves<br />
a fun twist that both simplifies the process and guarantees success. Students swish a popular<br />
sports drink you provide in their mouth to break open or lyse their own cheek cells. This fluid is<br />
then added to a detergent containing sodiumdodecyl sulfate (SDS), and heated to break down the<br />
fats and proteins of the cell membrane. Ethanol is gently added to the solution to reveal the DNA<br />
precipitate. Once isolated, students can display their own DNA using the colorful cord and microcentrifuge<br />
tubes included and glass vial necklaces, available separately. Includes instructions and<br />
materials for 30 students. Note: A hot water bath is recommended.<br />

W Detection of Alu Insertion<br />
by PCR Lab Activity<br />
Examine Individual Genotypes<br />
for a DNA Polymorphism<br />
Found in the Human Genome<br />
Throughout evolution, segments of<br />
DNA about 300 bp long have been<br />
interspersed among primate<br />
genomes. Alu genotype distribution<br />
varies among different populations;<br />
anywhere from 500,000 to 1<br />
million copies may reside in the human<br />
genome. The insert is often used in genetic<br />
and evolutionary studies. Students use polymerase<br />
chain reaction technology to amplify segments of real human<br />
DNA and then electrophorese them to determine the Alu genotype.<br />
You will get enough materials to run 24 PCR reactions, a teacher’s<br />
guide, and student copymaster. A thermal cycler or two water baths,<br />
electrophoresis chamber, power supply, variable volume micropipets,<br />
required, are available separately. Note: Coupon included for perishable<br />

PCR Lab Activity<br />
Investigate the<br />
Various Uses of DNA<br />
Polymorphism<br />
Identification in<br />
Individuals<br />
Certain DNA basepair<br />
sequences vary from<br />
person to person; for<br />
example, in one person<br />
a particular basepair<br />
sequence may be<br />
repeated ten times,<br />
while in another person the same sequence may be repeated 25<br />
times. Known as polymorphisms, the repetitions are an identifying<br />
factor in a person’s DNA, and thereby can be used for DNA fingerprinting<br />
in forensics, paternity testing, and disease diagnosis. The<br />
basepair sequences can be separated using electrophoresis and the<br />
resulting banding pattern used to distinguish one person from the<br />
next, which students perform with the lab activity. Using DNA isolated<br />
from their own cheek cells, students amplify a variable DNA region<br />
known as a D1S80 locus, electrophorese the DNA, and identify<br />
whether the student is homozygous or heterozygous for the D1S80<br />
locus. The kit includes enough materials to run 24 PCR reactions, a<br />
teacher’s guide, and student copymaster. A thermal cycler or two<br />
water baths, electrophoresis chamber, power supply, variable volume<br />
micropipets, required, are available separately. Note: Coupon included<br />

cheek cells, students amplify a section<br />
of their mitochondrial genome by PCR. Instead of using an automated<br />
thermocycler and time consuming procedures, this lab can be completed in<br />
one hour. Once PCR is complete, students can test their results by running<br />
amplified DNA on an agarose gel with size markers. Three water baths, an<br />
eletrophoresis chamber, and power supply are required, but not included.<br />

Create a Hybrid Plant by Fusing<br />
Protoplasts from Different<br />
Geranium Plants<br />
Protoplasts, the living part of a plant cell within<br />
the cell wall, are often used in many areas of<br />
botanical research, such as the study of cell<br />
wall regeneration, localization of biochemical<br />
processes in the cell, and investigations of the mechanics of virus infection. Hybrid<br />
crops are being developed by introducing gene sequences into protoplasts, which<br />
may lead to plants with increased resistance to diseases and pests, greater nutritional<br />
content, and enhanced photosynthetic capabilities. Students learn the<br />
basics of protoplast fusion by working with geranium plants to create hybrids; the<br />
two different colors of the plants make it easy to observe the hybridization. It comes<br />
with enough materials for ten setups, as well as teacher’s guide and student copymaster.<br />
A geranium, required, is available separately. Note: Coupon included for<br />
perishable materials. Redeem by mail, fax, phone, or e-mail.<br />

Geoblox Botany Models<br />
Students Can Build Their Own Model for Better Understanding<br />
Textbook pictures can help students visualize concepts, but they cannot provide a<br />
3-D view. Geoblox models provide a multi-learning approach to helping students understand a concept or a<br />
structure from the inside out as they build their own models. These models also provide opportunities<br />
for developing higher order thinking skills, as students are asked to draw diagrams of their<br />
models before building them. The 25 models included in the book are Plant Cell, Leaf Layers,<br />
Flower, Tracheids, Leaf Cross Section, Vessel Elements, Stomata Open, Stomata Closed,<br />
Dicot Root, Dicot Stem, Monocot Root, Monocot Stem, Fall Leaf and Stem, Lateral Roots,<br />
Root Tip, Bryophyte (Moss), Pterophyte (Fern), Dendrochronology, Angiosperm<br />
(Cactus), Gymnosperm (Conifer), Acid Rain, Tree Rings, Bog Succession, Tropical Rain<br />
Forest, and Vegetative Propagation (Creosote). Each model also includes an explanation<br />
printed on the back, and the haploid and diploid life cycle stages are color coded. The<br />
set of patterns is comb bound and can be used as a copymaster to produce enough for<br />
your entire class or you can enlarge the patterns to use as demonstration models.<br />

with root hormone (available separately). Next, fill the<br />
Rooter-Pot’s water reservoirs and close the hinged halves<br />
around the stem, fill it with soil, and secure the lid. When<br />
roots form, simply cut completely through the stem at the<br />
base of pot and it is now ready to replant. Constructed of<br />
durable, clear plastic, so you can watch the progress of root<br />
formation. Use for stems between 1 ⁄4" and 1 ⁄2" diameter.<br />

SunCalc – The Sunlight Calculator<br />
Protect Your Plants While Growing<br />
Maximize plants’ growing potential by placing plants in optimum<br />
light conditions. This innovative device accurately measures the<br />
amount of accumulated light that falls on a specific growing location,<br />
providing you with the ability to match a plant’s light requirements<br />
(full sun, partial sun, etc.) with the actual light conditions as<br />
measured by SunCalc. The actual measurement obtained by the unit<br />
is photosynthetically active (PAR) light in a specific growing location.<br />
Simply place the SunCalc at the desired location, turn it on, and<br />
12 hours later return to read the results: Full Sun, Partial Sun, Partial<br />
Shade, or Full Shade. The SunCalc is also water-resistant to withstand<br />
spray from sprinklers or rain.<br />

Biofuels: Investigating Ethanol<br />
Production and Combustion<br />
Lab Avtivitiy<br />
Demonstrate the Costs and Benefits of Biofuels<br />
In three phases of investigation students will gain understanding<br />
of alternative fuels, how they are made, what<br />
they are used for, and what trade-offs exist. Students begin<br />
by fermenting corn and cane sugar, the two food sources<br />
used most commonly to produce ethanol. The experiment<br />
continues with the distillation of the fermented stillage to<br />
produce fuel and studying the energy released by the combustion<br />
of ethanol and kerosene. Comparing these results<br />
and constrasting the two by-products — CO 2 and particulate<br />
matter — of the two fuels, students can then discuss<br />
the trade-offs of biofuels and fossil fuels as sources of energy.<br />
Includes materials for six setups.<br />

Ethanol Fuel From Corn<br />
Lab Activity<br />
First-Hand Demonstration of Fuel Creation Processes<br />
Demonstrate the creation of ethanol and examine its use and<br />
effectiveness with this student experiment. By performing germination,<br />
fermentation, and distillation procedures, students<br />
will produce ethanol and other products. Two methods are<br />
offered for germinating the corn seed and acquiring the enzyme<br />
required for saccharification of starches in the corn, so that students<br />
can compare each process. Applying concepts of volatality<br />
of liquids, evaporation, and condensation, students will<br />
examine the combustion of both lab-grade ethanol and corn<br />
ethanol. Observing the differences and similarities between the<br />
ethanol types will establish a complete understanding of this<br />
fuel. Students will then discuss the future of this new fuel source<br />
and its environmental, economic, and social impacts. Includes<br />
materials for five setups or nine demonstrations.<br />

Detection of Mad Cow Disease Lab Activity<br />
Examine Simulated PCR Products to Find BSE<br />
Mad cow disease or Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) nearly devastated the US<br />
beef industry in the mid-nineties. This neurodegenerative, fatal condition in cows is also<br />
linked to the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans who ingest BSE infected beef. One<br />
mode of BSE transmission throughout cattle populations is by the inclusion of infected<br />
cow or sheep parts in cattle feed, a practice that was banned in the United States in 1997.<br />
In this experiment, students examine simulated PCR products from several feed mills, to<br />
determine any possible violations of the 1997 ban. Students will perform agarose gel<br />
electrophoresis and use their knowledge of DNA to formulate conclusions on the transmission<br />
of mad cow disease. Includes enough materials to run six gels. A thermal cycler<br />
or two water baths, electrophoresis chamber, power supply, variable volume micropipets,<br />
required, are available separately. Note: Coupon included for perishable materials.<br />
