The equipment purchased through this award is being used to improve the laboratory components of two courses: Advanced Cell Biology and Recombinant DNA Technology. The courses are designed to present the fundamentals of experimental procedures and to provide opportunities for extensive practice with different pieces of equipment under the supervision of experienced researchers. Among the competencies being developed are microscopy, spectro- photometry, electrophoresis of proteins and DNA, growth of bacteria, and the isolation and manipulation of recombinant DNA. Use of computer programs to analyze molecular structures also is being taught. A phase contrast microscope, two UV-VIS spectrophotometers, gel boxes and a power supply for electrophoresis, an incubator/shaker and a sterile hood for growing and handling bacteria, a computer and computer software -- all purchased with help from this grant -- are being used to illustrate current techniques commonly encountered in Molecular Biology. Students completing the two courses are learning habits and skills that they can use in graduate school or in an entry-level position in a research laboratory. Many graduates of the program will become science teachers at the pre-collegiate level.

通过该合同购买的设备用于改善 两门课程的实验室组成部分：高级细胞生物学和 重组DNA技术 这些课程旨在介绍 实验程序的基本原理，并提供机会 为广泛的实践与不同件的设备下， 有经验的研究人员的监督。 其中正在开发的能力是显微镜，光谱， 光度法、蛋白质和DNA电泳、细菌生长，以及 重组DNA的分离和操作。 利用计算机 分析分子结构的程序也在教授中。 相位 对比显微镜，两个紫外可见光谱仪，凝胶盒和一个 电泳电源、培养箱/振荡器和无菌罩 用来培养和处理细菌，一台电脑和电脑软件-- 都是在这个基金的帮助下购买的--被用来说明 分子生物学中常见的技术。 学生 完成这两门课程是学习习惯和技能，他们可以 在研究生院或在研究的入门级职位使用 实验室 该项目的许多毕业生将成为科学教师 在大学预科阶段。
