Pop Beads
Pop beads are a useful tool to help visualize the small complex structure of biological molecules. The beads connect easily and can be quickly disassembled to simulate different molecular activities. With these hands-on models, students can visually and tactually feel DNA models and simulate mitosis and meiosis.
The specially designed white pop beads with four extra holes,equally spaced in a 90° plane from the axis of attachment, are typically used to form the nucleotide backbone. These are 10 mm diameter in size. The clear pop bead connectors are designed to simulate hydrogen bonds.
Caution: Choking Hazard: children under 8 years can choke or suffocate. Adult supervision is required.
- Explore Mitosis and Meiosis
- Explore the structure of DNA
- Various colors to make a wide variety of models and kits
