Turning Genes On and Off Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-GAIE-6898
Jlab Export is a leading Turning Genes On and Off Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Turning Genes On and Off (code EL-GAIE-6898) is a microbiology investigation in which students use a commonly found microbe to test and predict how temperature affects gene regulation and expression. The gene studied produces a pigment that turns the bacterial colonies red, so students can see when it is switched on. JLab (Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, Ambala, India) supplies it to schools, colleges and dealers.

What Is Turning Genes On and Off Used For?
Every cell carries far more genes than it uses at any one time; it switches genes on and off in response to signals from its surroundings. Class 12 biology teaches this regulation of gene expression through the lac operon, where the presence of lactose switches on the genes needed to use it. This investigation shows the same principle with a signal students can control, temperature, and with a result they can see without instruments: when the gene is expressed, the colonies turn red. Students first predict the outcome, then grow the microbe under different temperature conditions and compare the colour of the colonies.
The open-ended part of the activity is what makes it useful for project work and college practicals. Once the temperature effect is clear, groups plan their own tests of other conditions that might change expression, decide on controls and record their results. Handle the cultures with normal school microbiology practice: use aseptic technique, keep plates closed after inoculation, work under teacher supervision, wash hands after the practical, and disinfect or autoclave all cultures before disposal.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 kits; state how many student groups each kit should serve.
- Contents and timing — ask JLab to confirm the contents and the expiry date of any culture or chemical, and plan delivery close to the date of the practical.
- Laboratory equipment — an incubator, petri dishes and inoculating loops can be quoted in the same enquiry if your laboratory needs them.
- Shipping — destination and delivery terms, especially for export orders that include biological material.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do students learn from this kit?
That genes are regulated: the environment, here temperature, decides whether a gene is expressed. The red pigment in the colonies makes the gene’s activity visible, and the extension work teaches experimental design.
Which organism is used?
The listing describes it only as a commonly found microbe and does not name the species. Ask JLab for the organism and its handling information with your quotation.
Which classes is it suitable for?
Class 12 biology, alongside the topic of gene regulation, and college microbiology or molecular biology practicals. It also suits student research projects.
What information is needed for an export quotation?
The quantity, destination country and port or city, preferred delivery terms such as FOB or CIF, any packing or labelling requirements, and a tender reference where applicable.
Who supplies this kit?
JLab (Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd), Ambala, Haryana, India, which quotes for it directly to schools, colleges, dealers and importers.
Supplier
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a science education and laboratory equipment company incorporated in 2017, with its base on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. JLab resells this investigation together with the laboratory equipment it produces itself, so a school can source the kit and the supporting apparatus from one supplier, and each kit is inspected by eye before dispatch. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Kenya in East Africa, Sudan in North Africa, Hong Kong in East Asia, Fiji in Oceania and Croatia in Southern Europe. Institutions buying by tender can refer to the JLab lab tenders page.
Equipment for Microbiology and Gene Expression Practicals
- Bacteriological Incubator — an insulated chamber with a double-glazed observation door for growing cultures at a set temperature.
- Petri Dish Culture — transparent polystyrene petri dishes for culture experiments.
- Inoculating Loop Nichrome Wire — a nichrome wire loop for transferring and streaking microbes.
- DNA Model — shows the double strand of DNA and how a gene is duplicated.
