DNA Structure Model, Plastic Assembly Kit, Deluxe
Product Code : EL-HSM-10488
Quick answer: The DNA Structure Model, Plastic Assembly Kit, Deluxe is an advanced DNA kit in which the four nitrogenous bases come in different unlabelled colours, so students work out their own base-pair colour coding. It is used to teach helix formation and strand separation. The strand twists into a double helix without a centre post and lifts off its plastic base. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for schools, colleges and universities.
Specifications
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Bases | Four nitrogenous bases, each in a different unlabelled colour |
| Base-pair coding | Designed by the students |
| Helix assembly | Twists into a double helix without a centre post |
| Stand | Plastic base; the model is removable |
| Extension | Extends to full length to show strand separation |
How the kit is used in class
In this deluxe kit the four bases come in different colours with no labels, so the first task is for students to decide which colour stands for adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine and to record their own key. They then have to apply the pairing rules correctly, A with T and G with C, which turns the model into a check on understanding rather than a copying exercise.
Once built, the strand is twisted into a double helix, and the special plastic holds that shape without a centre post. Lifting the model off its base and extending it to full length shows how the two strands come apart, which leads directly into lessons on DNA replication.

Frequently asked questions
Can students choose their own base-pair colour code?
Yes. The four nitrogenous bases are in different unlabelled colours, so students assign the coding themselves.
How is the double helix held without a centre post?
The kit uses a plastic that lets the assembled strand be twisted into a double helix that keeps its shape without a centre post.
