About Polymerase Chain ReactionVirtual Lab Simulation
在聚合酶链反应（PCR）模拟中，您将被扔进发生谋杀案的犯罪现场。为了调查犯罪现场，您的第一个任务是收集血液样本，以期凶手留下其DNA的痕迹。
Analyze DNA
After sampling you will go to the lab to isolate and analyze the sample of DNA you collected. By using a PCR kit, a thermocycler, and the purified DNA from the crime scene, it is up to you to mix the correct reagents and perform the PCR experiment.
See the structure of DNA and its replication up close
A 3D animation will show the PCR experiment at the molecular level, illustrating the structure of DNA and its replication. Quiz questions will be asked throughout the experimental process, as well as at specific steps of the PCR itself.
Identify the murderer
In the PCR simulation, you will your collected sample and other prepared samples from the suspects on a gel, and then compare the patterns that emerge.
Will you be able to identify the murderer?
