Moertel, Cheryl; Frutiger, Bruce
Science Teacher, v63 n8 p50-52 Nov 1996
Describes a DNA fingerprinting simulation that uses vegetable food coloring and plastic food containers instead of DNA and expensive gel electrophoresis chambers. Allows students to decipher unknown combinations of dyes in a method similar to that used to decipher samples of DNA in DNA fingerprint techniques. (JRH)
