DNA Fingerprinting Using Restriction Enzymes, Group Size for 8 Gels

Teach your students about restriction enzyme digests in the context of forensic science! Your students will cut DNA with restriction enzymes and then compare the banding pattern of the crime scene DNA versus that of two suspects using agarose gel electrophoresis.
