Lab-Aids, Inc.
Lab-Aids™ Molecular Models and Lewis Diagrams
Understand how elements combine to form compounds, construct molecular structures and demonstrate chemical bonding between atoms.
Lab-Aids™ Ob-Scertainer™ Kit
Develop a basic understanding of experimental design, use a model to explain indirect observation, develop and test hypothesis, observe/record observations and retest and draw conclusions based upon investigation.
Lab-Aids™ Modeling and Investigating Watersheds
Using this kit, students use appropriate tools to analyze and interpret data.
Lab-Aids™ Photosynthesis Activity Kit
Use atom models to build carbon dioxide and water molecules then 'react' them to form sugar and oxygen molecules.
Lab-Aids™ Blinking LED Conductivity Indicator
The Lab-Aids™ 9 Level Conductivity Meter shows the relative conductivity/resistance of liquids and solids.
Lab-Aids™ Investigating Human Heredity
Study selected human traits controlled by a single pair of genes, stimulate an interest in science of genetics, determine phenotypes of several and same traits, interpret genotypes of individuals in a pedigree, construct a pedigree diagram for a single trait in their family, conduct a controlled experiment for that trait and discover and understand relationship of dominant and recessive traits.
Lab-Aids™ Audible Conductivity Indicator
Auditory Conductivity Indicators are a practical alternative to light sensitive LED conductivity indicators. They also provide semi-quantitative information about the materials being tested.
Lab-Aids™ Energy Transfer: Motion of a Pendulum
In this activity, students investigate the motion of a pendulum and the energy transfers that take place as it swings.
Lab-Aids™ Atomic Structure and Chemical Interactions
Students are introduced to models of atomic structure and use the planetary model to visualize the number of valence electrons.
Lab-Aids™ Forensic Science: Introduction to DNA Fingerprinting Kit
Introduction to forensic science (DNA mapping/fingerprinting), cells, cell structure and magnification. Construct a model of a 'chromosome' with color-coded genes and read simulated DNA X-ray films.
Lab-Aids™ Osmosis and Diffusion Kit
Observe diffusion through a membrane in two directions at the same time, observe selective permeability of a membrane and understand how osmosis and diffusion relate to cellular life processes on a cellular level.
Lab-Aids™ Bacteria Study Kit
Culture bacteria, prepare bacterial smears and stain them using Gram stain and observe/identify bacteria.
Lab-Aids™ Genetic Concepts Kit
Rediscover Mendel's Law of Genetics, simulate gametogenesis and fertilization and develop understanding of purebred inheritance, hybrid inheritance with one allelic pair and dihybrid cross with allelic pairs. Understand co-dominance or blending and Law of Dominance and explore Law of Segregation and Recombination as well as Law of Independent Assortment.
Lab-Aids™ Engineering & Design: Modeling & Mitigating Stream Processes (Developed by SEPUP)
Students model the phenomenon of sediment movement in a river using the Lab-Aids Modeling & Mitigating Stream Processes kit by using a unique mini stream table that provides evidence for how geoscience processes change Earth’s surface.
Lab-Aids™ Plant Cloning: Propagating Cuttings
This life science kit provides students with specially designed materials that make it easy to clone plants through the process known as asexual plant propagation.
