[FUN_Mail] FUN_Mail Digest, Vol 29, Issue 1

[Hilary Gerstein]

I've used the Carolina kit many times!  It's not perfect but I've always
gotten a useable set of images so that the students were able to genotype
themselves and talk about it.  I have a lot of notes on this so feel free
to contact me if you decide to go with that kit and want some pointers.
You'll still obviously need equipment and some basic molecular lab items
(salts, etc).
Cheers!
