Biology A level teachers - looking at getting a kit to do electrophoresis with Y13 - we have tanks etc but which kits have you used and what is the best way to source cheaper micropipettes, some kits have them as optional? Currently looking at EDVOTEK cancer one @chatbiology

Who would think that technology made for vanity would some day be a potential life saver. Just goes to show you never know what progress will be the most valuable.

[Emma P MCCT @teachyscience]

Any ideas please? We are doing algal balls and photosynthesis w y13 however they are getting results that are getting more acidic w increasing light intensity rather than less acidic! @chatbiology #chatbiology @SAPS_News @RoyalSocBio

Just a thought...

Chromosome, chromatin and chromatid are adjectives, not nouns...

Science AAQ questions, please share!

We teach the Pearson BTEC level 3 dip/ex cert, but are open to different subjects in AAQ. We will probably run 2 small courses.

I'm interested to hear what other centres are choosing and why.
