Materials and Equipment for iGEM.

Here is a list that helps you prepare for the iGEM competition. This list has the materials needed and the equipment that will be used in the iGEM competition. Some of the reagents are generic because the project will specify what type of reagent you will use. Also the list is divided if you have a thermocycler or not.
