Lab Simulations for Microbiology
Learn about the microorganisms that are all around and inside us in our microbiology simulations. Study the living organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye, explore how to handle them in the laboratory, and discover how they play an important role in the causes and control of diseases.
The Microbiology package includes 15 core simulations:
- Antibodies
- Bacterial Cell Structures: An introduction to the bacterial cell
- Bacterial Growth Curves: Experiment with bacterial growth
- Bacterial Isolation
- Bacterial Quantification by Culture: Count bacteria with serial dilution
- BioSafety (Level III)
- Control of Microbial Growth: Explore decontamination and selective toxicity
- ELISA
- Genetic Transfer in Bacteria: Prevent the rise of superbugs!
- Identification of an Unknown Bacteria: Help save baby Kuppelfangs from an epidemic!
- Introduction to Immunology: Explore the immune system and save the world!
- Microscopy
- Next Generation Sequencing
- Pasteurization and Sterilization
- The Gram Stain: Identify and differentiate bacteria
What the professors say
“Within 20-30 minutes, students could evaluate a technique that normally takes hours and is quite boring and dry."
“Labster provides a way for schools without lots of resources, to still engage students in a deep and meaningful lab experience.”
"Labster brings both humor and relevance, as well as real life context to science education.”
