My DNA

Have you ever wondered what your DNA looks like? Well wonder no more! Thanks to the internet, you too can concoct a solution that will show your DNA! The solution is a mixture of pineapple juice, alchohol, distilled water, detergent, baking soda, and of course a mouth full of water swooshed around with your spit. Yummm! Here's mine.

Ta-doo! The middle layer seperated from the solution is my DNA! Of course this would all be so much impressive looking at it under a microscope (which we don't have) but it's still pretty neat :o)


And here's another picture of my DNA ;o) Tee hee! He looks so Asian when he sleeps!

How do you have time to do things like this with a baby?! Will I have time like you eventually?

lol - I was just going to say the same thing as Eleana! A stay at home mom who has time and energy for science progects is a thing to behold!

LOL - I'm not the one who actually conducted the experiment. As you may know, I'm not one for science. I donated the spit and Nathan actually did the work. I barely have time to shower!
